"Everybody wants it at [Doral golf course] because it's right next to the airport. It's the best location, Trump said as he signed a series of executive orders, including the name reversal of the Department of Defense back to the Department of War. Beautiful everything. The president maintained that he would not personally profit from the summit. Notably, in 2019, Trump announced that the Doral golf course would host the G-7 summit, but he reversed course after intense bipartisan backlash."
"Lawmakers and ethics experts criticized the decision at the time, arguing it violated the emoluments clause by allowing Trump to potentially profit from foreign governments. Miami Mayor Francis Suarez released a statement after Friday's announcement emphasizing the city is honored by the decision, and that it reinforces Miami's role on the international stage. As for this year's summit in South Africa, the president announced he would not be attending, but rather sending Vice President J.D. Vance in his place."
"Earlier this year, the Trump administration accepted a small group of white South Africans as refugees under a relocation effort for Afrikaners. Additionally, Trump met with South African President Cyril Ramaphosa at the White House in May and showed him a video of Black activists advocating for land seizures from white farmers, presenting it as evidence of the alleged genocide."
President Donald Trump announced the United States will host next year's G20 summit at Trump National Doral golf course, citing its proximity to the airport. He signed executive orders including renaming the Department of Defense to the Department of War and said he would not personally profit from the summit. Trump proposed hosting the 2019 G-7 at Doral but reversed after bipartisan backlash and emoluments concerns. Trump will not attend this year's summit in South Africa and will send Vice President J.D. Vance. Earlier the administration accepted a small group of white South Africans as refugees, and Trump showed President Cyril Ramaphosa a video alleging land-seizure threats against white farmers.
