In the eyes of the world, America is back thanks to Donald Trump — whether they like it or not
World leaders, movie stars and billionaires are flocking to the “Winter White House” to find favor with Trump, who presides genially at a table in the center of the balmy terrace overlooking the palm-fringed Intracoastal Waterway or takes meetings in the sumptuous wood-paneled library.
Exquisitely dressed women glide around through the golden light that presages the golden era that Trump has promised America.
One of the “friends of Elon” who have become fixtures on the terrace said last week it was hard to leave because it is so interesting to observe the parade of courtiers who Trump “bends to his will” by sheer force of personality — and, of course, the cult status that comes from winning the most powerful office in the world against all odds.
The other thing Trump’s friends tell him is that, with a single election, he managed to vanquish the “Five Families” of politics: the Bushes, Cheneys, Clintons, Obamas and Bidens.
