Trump supporters cheer motorcade as he touches down in Palm Beach for Thanksgiving w/ family
The London Daily Mail ^ | November 22, 2016 | James Wilkinson

Donald Trump's motorcade was cheered on by supporters Tuesday night as it carried the President-elect and his family to his Mar-a-Lago estate for their annual Thanksgiving celebration there.

He had been seen around 7pm touching down in Palm Beach International Airport, where Melania and youngest son Barron were also spotted stepping down onto the tarmac. RNC chairman Reince Priebus is also making his way to the feast, according to Trump's press pool.

Southern Boulevard was shut down, along with the I-95 and a number of other intersecting roads, while the motorcade made its way to Trump's estate, according to Palm Beach Post.

Former Secret Service agents Dan Bongino and Arnette Heintze said Trump's neighbors should expect some security-related disruptions now that he is President-elect, such as the possible construction of a helipad, but it shouldn't be too stressful.

'Mar-a-Lago is a Secret Service agent's dream to secure. It is everything you would want,' Bongino said. 'You have limited access and a really exclusive enclave where people who don't live down there will generally stick out pretty quickly.'

Mar-a-Lago's members, who pay a $100,000 initiation fee and $14,000 annual dues, can expect to walk through metal detectors and have their cars and luggage sniffed by bomb dogs when Trump is there....

So then the media will fabricate news and speculate to fill the gaps.

Same thing they do now, except they will get caught by more often with the new way.

This is nice to hear. So many people on the left trying to tear him down.

Trump has held several press releases, primary watch parties and an Election Night watch party at Mar-a-Lago.

Remember this...
03/15/16
Politico reporter Ben Schreckinger was denied entry to Donald Trump’s press conference despite having previously been granted credentials by the campaign. Schreckinger went to cover Trump’s speech and press conference at his Mar-a-Lago club in Florida but was denied entry and escorted off of the property. Schreckinger had written an accusatory article attacking Corey Lewandowski’s temperament.

I really love the way he handles these vicious people. He will not be bird dogged or risk undesirable press since he owns the property and has complete control.

No big disruption. Palm beach went through it all during the Kennedy years.

Didn’t Trump say something a while ago about the white house needing a new ballroom?

He does. He said today that his plane and Trumps are next to each other, although Trump dwarfs Rush’.

Trump has a Boeing airliner, Limbaugh has a Gulfstream private jet. Both say the owner is very well off.

My uncle, a prominent Florida banker, was part of the Nixon/Bebe Rebozo/Gleason clique way back when.

Largest ball room in DC. The WH does not have a ball room. It uses tents. So it’s only logical to use the Ivanka Trump ballroom!

Yup, and Ivanka had one built in the Old Post Office renovation.

Please note that Florida is shall-issue and many of his neighbors could be pretty torqued off about having to disarm while Trump is there.

Trump needs to build a ballroom on the White House—and maybe put some gold leaf on the tops of the columns in front of the building. Something to make it look like a majestic place that it should be.

Wonder if Rush still has the 50 million dollar Gulfstream toy.

He does.

Not sure that’s the same Gulfstream from the article. I heard that he upped it a few years ago.

The PB police and FHP were 100% for Trump. The airport was a couple miles from his Oct. WPB rally venue where he had received a rock-rolling welcome Nearly every cop within the area joined in for that detail.

I dined a few tables away from Nixon/ Bebe in Coral Gables and again on Key Biscayne a long time ago.

My uncle knew Bebe, he may have know your uncle. Small world.

I think the relevant tail number is N1EB, as in Excellence in Broadcasting.
