Donald Trump a Florida man? Despite a stinging "good riddance" tweet from New York's governor, the president's home state may not let him go to Florida without a fight. Trump's plan to shift his permanent residence to Palm Beach will likely be heavily scrutinized by New York state
Despite a stinging"good riddance" tweet from New York's governor, the president's home state may not let him go to Florida without a fight.
Even though it appears Trump has a strong case — he's only spent a few nights at his Trump Tower penthouse overlooking Fifth Avenue since he became president — tax experts say it's not a matter of if he will be audited but when. In announcing his move in a tweet late Thursday, Trump said New York City"will always have a special place in my heart!" But despite paying"millions of dollars in city, state and local taxes each year," he complained, he had been"treated very badly by the political leaders of both the city and state."
Story continuesTrump responded later Friday with a four-part tweet that blasted both Cuomo and de Blasio, saying,"I love New York, but New York can never be great again under the current leadership." For Trump, his planned move to Florida could mark the end of an era. The glittering Manhattan skyline has always been part of Trump's brand, interwoven with his brash, boastful, in-your-face style. Trump Tower, his gleaming high-rise home for decades, became a character in his 2016 presidential campaign, the site of his famous escalator ride to launch his bid and dozens of headline-grabbing events and news conferences.
When the president-elect ran his presidential transition out of the Tower, aides actively explored scenarios in which Trump would return to New York most weekends. But as demonstrators clogged midtown streets, Trump, who is loath to face protesters, began to back away from the idea.
