President Donald Trump pulled his Trump National Doral golf resort in Miami as the venue for the 2020 Group of Seven meeting after facing widespread criticism that he was using a major government event for personal gain.
The search will start for a new location, including the possibility of using Camp David, he said in a tweet late Saturday night. In earlier posts, Trump defended the decision to pick the resort, touting the venue’s various amenities.
