Always perceived as a bit of a hindrance to genuinely relaxing on the links or by the pool, Trump National Doral’s location near the Miami airport is now a national news story.

That’s after President Donald Trump offered up his resort as the likely locale for the 2020 G7 because, on top of the lovely weather in August, it’s airport adjacent.

And every world leader can have their own villa!

From Bloomberg:

“Each country can have their own villa, or their own bungalow” if the meeting is at Doral, Trump said Monday at the end of the G-7 summit in Biarritz, France. The U.S. is next in the rotation to host the annual meeting of world leaders, which will occur in the middle of the 2020 presidential campaign.

“I don’t want to make any money,” said Trump, who also said that he’s losing $3 billion to $5 billion just by serving as president.

Earlier in the day, Trump ticked off advantages of holding a global summit in the Sunshine State of Florida. “It’s very big,” and it’s Miami, “so it’s a great area.” He told German Chancellor Angela Merkel, sitting next to him, that she’d have just a three-minute helicopter ride from the airport to the site.

“People are really liking it,” Trump said.

Doral members are trying to get out and get some of their money back, revenue is plummeting and the PGA Tour no longer goes there.
