美国总统唐纳德·特朗普周三表示，他希望将位于佛罗里达州的豪华高尔夫球场改造成一个供未来总统使用的休养地，模式参照历史悠久的戴维营度假胜地。这位80岁的亿万富翁表示，美国安全官员曾建议他将西棕榈滩的特朗普国际高尔夫球场改造成他继任者的避难所。“看来所有总统都打高尔夫球，而我曾被特勤局和军方要求这样做，”这位本身就是高尔夫球爱好者的特朗普在椭圆形办公室对记者说。
US President Donald Trump said Wednesday he wants to turn his luxury Florida golf course into a retreat for future presidents modeled on the historic Camp David getaway. The 80-year-old billionaire said that US security officials had suggested the plan to transform the Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach into a sanctuary for his successors." Seems that all presidents play golf, and I was asked by Secret Service and the military," Trump who is himself a huge golf fan told reporters in the Oval Office."
“它距离机场只有大约两分钟的路程，所以他们实际上就会在那个地点，他们可以在那里度过周末，就像进行一次休养，就像一种戴维营式的休养。”他们问我是否愿意这么做，我说我愿意。这不是为我而做的，而是为所有未来的总统而做的。”特朗普表示，该地点具有安全优势，因为2024年9月，枪手瑞安·鲁思曾在此试图暗杀当时的总统候选人。
It's only about two minutes away from the airport, so they literally would be at that site, and they could spend a weekend there like a retreat, like sort of a Camp David retreat." And they asked if I'd be willing to do it, and I said I would be. This wouldn't be for me, this would be for all future presidents." Trump said there would be security advantages to the site, where gunman Ryan Routh tried to assassinate the then-presidential candidate in September 2024.
鲁思早在今年早些时候就被判处终身监禁。“这里没有高耸的建筑物俯视着它。这里也没有房屋，”他说。特朗普已经在该俱乐部的球场上度过了许多冬季周末。
Routh was jailed for life earlier this year." There are no high buildings looming over it. There are no houses on it," he said. Trump already spends many winter weekends on the fairways at the club.
这是从他位于海滨豪华庄园马阿拉戈（Mar-a-Lago）短途车程可达的地方，他在第一个任期内曾将其称为“冬季白宫”。特朗普没有说明美国政府资金是否将用于他俱乐部的计划。——“恰好是一个评级很高的球场”——但这是他在第二个任期内的一系列项目中的最新一项，这些项目让特朗普在美国总统职位上留下了物理印记，同时引发了人们对资金来源的质疑。
It is a short drive from his opulent beachfront Mar-a-Lago residence, which he dubbed the "Winter White House" in his first term. Trump did not address whether US government money would go towards the plan for his club.- 'Happens to be a highly-rated course' -But it is the latest in a series of projects in his second term that have seen Trump stamp his physical mark on the US presidency while raising questions about where the funds come from.
特朗普正在白宫建造一个耗资4亿美元的舞厅，他表示该舞厅的费用由他本人和私人捐助者承担，尽管额外安保功能的费用由美国纳税人承担。这位前房地产大亨还因决定在今年12月于迈阿密附近的多拉尔高尔夫球俱乐部举办G20峰会而面临伦理质疑。他在第一个任期曾因类似计划而在遭遇重大反弹后被迫放弃。一位白宫官员告诉法新社，特朗普位于西棕榈滩的房产具备“任何总统度假所需的所有设施”，并且“恰好是一个评级很高的高尔夫球场”。
Trump is building a $400-million ballroom at the White House that he says is paid for by himself and private donors though the costs for extra security features are being borne by US taxpayers. The former property tycoon has also faced ethical questions about his decision to host this December's G20 summit at his Doral golf club near Miami. He was forced to give up a similar plan in his first term following a major backlash.A White House official told AFP that the Trump property in West Palm Beach has all the "features that are necessary for any presidential retreat" and "happens to be a highly-rated golf course."A lawyer representing the Trump course wrote to local officials in September comparing the proposed retreat to Camp David, Windsor Castle in Britain and France's Elysee Palace, the Washington Post reported.
代表特朗普球场的律师在九月向当地官员发信，将所提出的度假地与大卫营、英国温莎城堡和法国爱丽舍宫进行比较，《华盛顿邮报》报道了此事。然而，特朗普并不喜欢大卫营，他在两个任期内仅少数几次前往华盛顿附近马里兰州风景如画的山丘上的这个总统避难所。其他总统曾频繁前往那里并举办历史性的外国峰会，包括吉米·卡特在1978年欢迎埃及总统安瓦尔·萨达特和以色列总理梅纳赫姆·贝京签署《大卫营协议》的时候。
Trump is, however, not a fan of Camp David, having visited the presidential bolthole in the scenic Maryland hills near Washington on only a handful of occasions during his two terms in office. Other presidents have made frequent journeys and hosted historic foreign summits there, including when Jimmy Carter welcomed Egyptian President Anwar Sadat and Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin in 1978 to sign the Camp David
