For nearly a century, Mar-a-Lago has loomed large over Palm Beach—first as a palace of opulence, then as a flashpoint of politics. Originally built by cereal heiress Marjorie Merriweather Post, this 20th-century mega-mansion was once offered to the U.S. government as a presidential retreat… but they turned it down. Years later, Donald Trump made a stunning real estate power play that saved it from demolition and turned it into the Winter White House. This is the incredible true story of America’s most controversial estate—one of luxury, lawsuits, and legacy.
