Trump Entertains Guests Maskless At Mar-a-Lago After COVID-19 Outbreak

On Tuesday, former President Donald Trump was seen entertaining guests at his Mar-a-Lago club without abiding by COVID-19 precautions.

Footage from a recent event at the resort shows the former president hugging people maskless. The event occurred after a coronavirus outbreak among “some staff” forced the club to partially close just days before.

In photos, Trump is wearing a suit and tie and is speaking to guests on a balcony at the resort, where membership costs up to $200,000 a year.

Trump has been living at the Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach since leaving the White House in January.

After the partial closure of the club, Trump Organization employees received the following email: “As some of our staff have recently tested positive for COVID-19, we will be temporarily suspending service at the Beach Club and à la carte Dining Room.”

Parties caused the outbreak at the resort held by several groups where people did not wear masks or practice social distancing, including the former president himself.

A 500-person fundraiser for the charity Place of Hope is scheduled to occur at the resort on Sunday.
