Mar-a-Lago has dominated the headlines, courtesy of the now famous FBI search on former President Donald Trump's Florida residence. But long before it housed government documents, the opulent mansion had a rich and lively history.
When Post died in 1973, she willed Mar-a-Lago to the federal government to be used as a retreat for Presidents and diplomats – she wanted it to be a"Winter White House."
In December 1985, Trump purchased the property from the foundation for $5 million. He also paid millions more to purchase Mar-a-Lago's antiques. "Without Donald Trump, would that house have been preserved or not? So that's another thing to think about," he said."But, you know, it's a beautiful piece of history and was always a piece of history."
