Here's a timeline of all of Trump's visits to the so-called "winter White House," each of which reportedly costs taxpayers approximately $3 million.



April 16-22

The president arrived at Mar-a-Lago at 3 p.m. Monday afternoon, according to a White House pool report. The Palm Beach Post reports that he's there with a number of advisors including "White House chief of staff John Kelly, Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin, Labor Secretary Alex Acosta, national security adviser John Bolton, chief economic adviser Larry Kudlow, press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders, and senior policy adviser Stephen Miller.

On Wednesday morning, White House pool reporters noticed that the huge American flag at Mar-a-Lago had not been lowered to half-staff to honor Bush despite the president's instructions to do so on federal buildings the previous evening. (Mar-a-Lago is not a federal building, but as one reporter pointed out the flag lowering was the president's idea and Mar-a-Lago is his residence). By 9:58 a.m., White House Press Secretary said that flags at both Mar-a-Lago and Trump International Golf Club had been lowered to half-staff.

At 6:16 p.m., Trump and Abe began a joint press conference in the gilded ballroom at Mar-a-Lago. Trump expressed his "deep condolences to the entire Bush family on the passing of former First Lady Barbara Bush, a wonderful, wonderful person." He also said he and the first lady had been "honored to host [Shinzo] and Mrs. Abe once again at Mar-a-Lago."

He confirmed he "will be meeting with Kim Jong-un in the coming weeks to discuss the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula," and at a dinner following the press conference said the two leaders "had two very productive days on trade, on military, [and] on North Korea."

The Japanese delegation departed, when Trump headed to Key West for a briefing with anti-drug trafficking task forces. He returned to Mar-a-Lago Thursday afternoon.

Trump went to the Trump International Golf Club again on Friday and Saturday, when he tweeted that he would be watching Barbara Bush's funeral service from the "Southern White House". He also tweeted about James Comey, the former FBI director he fired who just published a new book, "Sleepy Eyes Chuck Todd of Fake News NBC," and a call he said he received from actor Sylvester Stallone about the late heavyweight boxing champion Sylvester Stallone, whom Trump is considering pardoning.

The president tweeted about DACA, immigration from Mexico, and the need for a border wall on Sunday morning, and he held hands with the first lady as they walked into the Church of Bethesda-by-the-Sea. It was their first public appearance since the airing of the 60 Minutes interview with Daniels. Trump addressed a shouted question about his DACA tweet from reporters on his way into the Episcopal church.

"Mexico has got to help us at the border," he said. "If they're not going to help us at the border, it's a very sad thing between our two countries. Mexico has got to help us at the border. And a lot of people are coming in because they want to take advantage of DACA, and we're going to have to really see. They had a great chance. The Democrats blew it. They had a great, great chance but we'll have to take a look, because Mexico has got to help us at the border. They flow right through Mexico. They send them into the United States. It can't happen that way anymore. Thank you."

The first family departed the church service at 12:28 p.m. en route to Mar-a-Lago, from which First Lady Melania Trump tweeted a photo of a room decorated for Easter:

On Saturday morning, the president stuck to his tradition of going to the Trump International Golf Club, where he arrived at 9:02 a.m. and spent about five hours before returning to Mar-a-Lago. The presidential motorcade took a detour from its usual route, the Palm Beach Post reported, avoiding hundreds of protesters rallying as part of the March for Our Lives and a billboard calling for Trump's impeachment that had been installed along the route the previous week.

According to the Palm Beach Post, Trump was "scheduled to host a 6:30 p.m. 'roundtable with Republican National Committee supporters' at Mar-a-Lago, then speak at a 7:30 p.m. dinner for the RNC’s Spring Donor Retreat" that evening. Both events were closed to press. The Washington Post reports that the president "dined on the gilded patio with old friends—former New York mayor Rudolph Giuliani and wife Judith and Blackstone Group chairman Stephen A. Schwarzman, among others."

On Saturday morning, Trump tweeted "Happy National Anthem Day!" and wrote that the mainstream media have "gone CRAZY" before following routine by heading to the nearby Trump International Golf Club.

He returned to Mar-a-Lago for the "Trump Victory" reception at 1:15 p.m., where he made the remarks mentioned above. (Trump Victory is a fundraising committee that jointly benefits Trump’s 2020 presidential campaign and the Republican Party.)

Trump left Mar-a-Lago for the Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach at 9:44 a.m. on Friday morning, reportedly his 17th trip to a golf course since taking office. "No word on what the president is actually doing this morning we'll provide that if/when we get an answer but at a breezy and blue 74 degrees, your pool notes it is an admittedly perfect day for golf," a pool report reads. According to a Wall Street Journal reporter's source, the president did play golf before returning to Mar-a-Lago shortly after 2 p.m.

Trump headed back to his West Palm Beach golf club on Saturday, leaving Mar-a-Lago a few minutes before 9 a.m., according to a pool report. "A vehicle known as the 'Trump mobile,' complete with abundant chrome trim, stars and stripes, a Trump puppet above the windshield, and signs saying 'Make America Great Again' and 'Trump Pence' exited the golf club at 1:10pm, a pool report reads. Trump left the club just before 1:30 p.m. and his motorcade made its way back to Mar-a-Lago. Hundreds of protesters—including several women wearing "pussy hats"—marched near the private club, demanding the president release his tax returns and chanting phrases like "Pay your taxes!" and "This is what democracy looks like."

On Easter Sunday, the president began the day by wishing his Twitter followers a happy Easter and tweeting about China, the Tax Day marches, and the military.

Their son Barron and his daughter Tiffany also attended, per a pool report. Back at Mar-a-Lago, Donald Trump Jr. posted a photo on Instagram modeling a green shirt emblazoned with the phrase, "Very Fake News," and the caption, "I think I'm going to have to buy a few thousand of these to pass around to our buddies in the Main Stream [sic] Media. In the meantime I'll model it for them. #yourewelcome#fakenews #veryfakenews #mainstream#media #msm."

The president arrived at Mar-a-Lago at 3:15 p.m. on Thursday afternoon after flying down to Florida on Air Force One, according to a press pool report. He welcomed Chinese President Xi Jinping and "his incredibly talented wife, a great, great celebrity in China, a great singer" for a dinner that also included Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross, Senior Adviser (and son-in-law) Jared Kushner, Chief of Staff Reince Priebus, Chief Strategist Stephen Bannon, and his daughter and newly named special assistant, Ivanka Trump.

"We have developed a friendship, I can see that," the president said about Jinping. "I think, long-term, we are going to have a very, very great relationship, and I look very much forward to it."

The group chose between pan-seared dover sole with champagne sauce and Thumbelina carrots and dry-aged New York Strip steak with whipped potatoes. The president ignored shouted questions about North Korea and Syria.

After the Chinese delegation departed, the president announced the military strike against Syria, releasing a statement that began with these words:

"On Tuesday Syrian President Bashar al Assad launched a horrible chemical attack on innocent civilians using a deadly nerve agent. Assad choked out the lives of helpless men, women and children. It was a slow and brutal death for so many. Even beautiful babies were cruelly murdered at this very barbaric attack. No child of God should ever suffer such horror."

While their wives visited a local middle school on Friday morning, Trump and Xi addressed reporters gathered in Mar-a-Lago's White and Gold Ballroom. The American president said that he and Xi had made "'tremendous progress' in their talks and that he believes 'lots of very potentially bad problems will be going away,'" according to a pool report. Xi spoke in Chinese. Later in the day, Ivanka Trump posted a video of her daughter, Arabella, singing a song in Chinese for Xi and his wife as her grandfather watched.

In an afternoon briefing, Press Secretary Sean Spicer told reporters the Trump had authorized the missile strike on Syria on Thursday afternoon, and that the missiles were fired at 7:40 p.m. during dinner with the Chinese president. "Foreign leaders and congressional leaders were notified starting at 8:30 p.m., just as first impacts were hitting the ground," a pool report reads, and Trump informed Xi as the dinner was ending. Xi and his wife departed Mar-a-Lago at 2:10 p.m, and Secretary of State Rex Tillerson told reporters that Trump accepted Xi's invitation to visit China in 2017.

Later in the day, Trump announced his plan to appoint new administration personnel, spoke with Saudi Arabian King Salman bin Abd al-Aziz al-Saud and South Korean Acting President Hwang Kyo-Ahn over the phone about Syria, and issued a proclamation declaring April 9, 2017 as National Former Prisoner of War Recognition Day.

On Saturday morning, President Trump left Mar-a-Lago for the Trump International Golf Club at 8:49 a.m., according to press pool reports. (It's reportedly his 15th trip to a golf course since taking office). Trump's motorcade encountered a group of about a dozen protesters with signs reading "Resign," "Loser," and "Impeach Trump" outside the entrance to the golf course. The president reportedly hit the links before leaving the club bound for Mar-a-Lago at 2:15 p.m. A Trump-branded Sikorsky S-76 helicopter landed at the club's new landing pad on Saturday afternoon, marking the first time the helipad has been used.

Later in the day, following an intelligence briefing and a call with the president of Brazil, Trump spent four and a half hours at the Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach. Chris Ruddy, CEO of the conservative Newsmax Media organization, tweeted a photo of the president with former Mitt Romney aide Peter Flaherty and former MasterChef contestant Max Kramer at the club. If Trump played golf (he's wearing a golf glove in the photo but the White House would not confirm whether he hit the links), the Post reports that it would have been his ninth golf outing as president. For context, Barack Obama played 333 rounds of golf during his two terms in office.

Trump returned to Mar-a-Lago for dinner with Perlmutter and Ross. Attorney Alan Dershowitz was also dining at the club, reportedly as a guest of Ruddy, and the president paid his table a visit. "He walked over to us and he started schmoozing" about a range of issues including the travel ban and the Supreme Court, Dershowitz told the New York Post and Boston Herald Radio. "He said, 'If I can get you to vote for me in 2020, that’ll be the real accomplishment because you’ve probably never voted for a Republican.' It’ll be very uphill, but I have an open mind."

Vice-President Mike Pence was also in Palm Beach that evening, and he spoke at a Club for Growth event at The Breakers. His motorcade drove three miles south so the VP could join the president's party for dessert at Mar-a-Lago, according to the Palm Beach Post.

Early Sunday morning, the president returned to Trump International Golf Club where, according to the White House, he had "meetings and phone calls." His motorcade returned to Mar-a-Lago at 12:10 p.m., after stopping along the way on the Bingham Island bridge to greet about a dozen supporters.

He reportedly invited a group of seven of them back to Mar-a-Lago and posed for photos with them in one of the club's ballrooms: "He wanted to thank them and invited them back," White House deputy press secretary Lindsay Walters told the White House press pool. "They came back and he briefly spoke to them, thanked them and took a few photos."

Trump left the club just after 4 p.m. on Sunday afternoon and again stopped to greet supporters on the Bingham Island bridge en route to the airport. He boarded Air Force One with a group that included New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft, who also flew with the president on Marine One back to the White House. Onboard Air Force One, Trump spoke to reporters about North Korea's Kim Jong Un: "He's acting very, very badly," the president said.

On Sunday, the president played a round with pro golfer Rory McIlroy at the Trump International Golf Club. Trump, who was critical of former President Obama's golf excursions, was criticized after what spokesperson Sarah Huckabee Sanders described as "a couple of holes this morning" was revealed to be 18 holes. (Sanders later said the president "intended to play a few holes and decided to play longer" and "also had a full day of meetings, calls and interviews" for the new national security advisor, following Michael Flynn's resignation after it was revealed that he had misled Vice President Mike Pence and other top White House officials about his conversations with the Russian ambassador to the United States.)

The march began at the Trump Plaza condominiums in West Palm Beach, and despite reports that police would shut down the path to Mar-a-Lago at Bingham Island, preventing protesters from making it onto the island of Palm Beach, the group was allowed to gather in front of Mar-a-Lago until about 8 p.m.

President Trump—who reportedly spent Saturday morning playing golf—celebrated the Red Cross Ball along with eight foreign ambassadors to the United States, several American ambassadors, and "nobility from England, France and Italy," according to the Palm Beach Daily News. The ball's theme was "From Vienna to Versailles," and Mar-a-Lago was decked out "in Old World 18th-century style, right down to the service staff in powdered wigs and satin knee breeches or Marie Antoinette dresses."
