Donald Trump has begun a two-week holiday vacation in South Florida, with plenty to mull over while hitting the links in West Palm Beach, as a top Democrat says the president was on thin ice amid sagging approval numbers.
Trump is expected to interview candidates at his Mar-a-Lago resort to replace Jerome Powell next year as Federal Reserve chairman. While White House aides have been pushing the president to shift his focus to domestic matters such as still-high prices, foreign policy matters will find him in Florida.
Asked Thursday about a possible visit by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu during his holiday break, Trump said, “Yeah, he’ll probably come to see me in Florida.”
