Trump wants a new Camp David retreat at his posh Florida golf club

US President Donald Trump is looking to create a presidential retreat similar to Camp David at his Florida golf club.The club would foot constructions costs as a "gift" to Americans and provide free memberships to future presidents - and accommodations to visiting foreign dignitaries. "It's only about two minutes away from the airport … and they could spend the weekend there, like a retreat, like a sort of Camp David retreat," Trump said on Wednesday.If it comes to fruition, Trump's transformed golf estate would stand in stark contrast to the rustic Camp David, once a Great Depression-era camp in the woods for federal employees. It would also mark another tradition transformed by Trump.

He is pushing ahead with plans to erect a massive triumphal arch elsewhere in Washington. He has hosted national security meetings and other events at Camp David, known as the president's country residence. The Camp David property - set deep in Catoctin Mountain Park in Frederick County, Maryland - was first taken over as a retreat by President Franklin Roosevelt, who nicknamed it "Shangri-La".The area is rustic, and in some ways resembles the military facility it officially is - Naval Support Facility, Thurmont. The entire facility is staffed by uniformed members of the US Navy and Marine Corps.
