Secret Service prepares for Trump post-presidency
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — The Secret Service is planning for a stepped-up presence in Palm Beach County starting on Jan. 20 — when President Donald Trump adds “former” to his title and begins spending much more time at his Mar-a-Lago Club.
ABC said renovations to the president’s and first lady’s living quarters are underway with the expectation they’d start spending more time there when Joe Biden becomes president and that the Secret Service has “begun looking at physical reinforcements” to Mar-a-Lago.
Before his presidency and since, Trump has spent lots of time during the winter at Mar-a-Lago, which is a short drive from his eponymously named golf course in West Palm Beach. Fans of the president have taken to gathering along the route between the Mar-a-Lago and the golf club to demonstrate support.
