President Donald Trump is attending a New Year’s Eve party at Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida Sunday night with First Lady Melania, their son Barron, other family members, honored guests and hundreds of members of Trump’s private club. The Mar-a-Lago estate also serves as Trump’s Florida residence and Winter White House.
As he walked the red carpet arrival with Melania and Barron, Trump spoke to reporters about his successful first year as president. He declined to comment when asked about the latest threat of nuclear war by North Korea’s communist dictator Kim Jong Un, saying, “We’ll see. We’ll see.”
