FLORIDA/NEW YORK/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT: “It’s official: President Trump is turning his back on New York. It seems hard to imagine a figure like Mr. Trump coming out of any other city. His career and celebrity have been intertwined with New York, his outsize personality and public image forged in the hustle and grind of Manhattan. But a month ago, Mr. Trump changed his official address from Trump Tower on Fifth Avenue — his primary residence since it was built in 1983 — to his Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, Fla. A lifelong New Yorker until he became president, Mr. Trump was shaped by the city where he grew up and built glitzy towers bearing his name. It was here that he walked on countless red carpets, held news conferences — and married, then divorced, his first two wives. All the while providing endless fodder for the city’s tabloid newspapers.”
