President-elect Donald J. Trump celebrated the New Year at Mar-a-Lago, which he dubbed the “center of the universe” last week. Accompanied by the former and future first lady, Melania Trump, the president rang in the new year with plenty of positive vibes.
“Just a great year; I think we’re going to do fantastically well as a country; we’re going to bring it back; it has to be brought back,” Trump told reporters as he arrived.
The future first lady wore a sleek, somewhat revealing black floor-length gown, while Trump wore a black dinner jacket and bowtie.
