US President Donald Trump is looking to create a presidential retreat similar to Camp David at his Florida golf club. The club would foot constructions costs as a "gift" to Americans and provide free memberships to future presidents - and accommodations to visiting foreign dignitaries. "It's only about two minutes away from the airport … and they could spend the weekend there, like a retreat, like a sort of Camp David retreat," Trump said on Wednesday.

President Donald Trump was the main character in a televised Iowa Senate debate Wednesday night between Democrat Josh Turek, a state representative, and Republican Rep. Ashley Hinson. Turek hammered Hinson for supporting Trump policies that he says are the culprit in rising costs for Iowa families — from “chaotic tariffs” to the war in Iran — whether they live in cities or on farms. Hinson fired back, accusing Turek of skipping out on votes in the Legislature, being “too liberal” for the state and lying when he accused her of using her position to enrich her family.
