The donation by the state of Florida of prime development land in Miami for Donald Trump’s presidential library has angered critics who say it is a betrayal of the city’s famous Freedom Tower, a beacon of hope for generations of immigrants.
Ron DeSantis, Florida’s Republican governor, and his three cabinet colleagues voted unanimously on Tuesday to deed the almost three-acre parcel of land immediately adjacent to the building – also known as El Refugio (the shelter) – to the foundation that will build the library devoted to the legacy of the 45th and 47th president.
