The Federal Government Is Officially Promoting Mar-A-Lago

WASHINGTON ― The U.S. State Department is officially promoting President Donald Trump’s personal real estate.

The department’s ShareAmerica website posted an article on April 4 celebrating Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate with glitzy photos and flowery descriptions of the “ornate Jazz Age house,” which was “designed with Old-World Spanish, Venetian and Portuguese influences.” The piece was featured the next day on the websites and social media accounts of various American embassies abroad, all of which went largely overlooked until Monday, when the posts sparked a furor online.
