Mar-a-Lago is a historic estate in Palm Beach, Florida, built in the 1920s by heiress Marjorie Merriweather Post. The property was purchased by Donald Trump in 1985 and converted into a private club while retaining a portion as his personal residence. It has been used for political gatherings, diplomatic meetings, and social events, and has played a prominent role in U.S. political discourse during Trump's presidency and beyond.
