President Donald Trump said Friday that the U.S. will host next year’s Group of 20 summit at his golf club in southern Florida. In his first term, Trump tried to host a separate global summit at the club, located in Doral, but backed down after criticism from his own party about the propriety of doing so.”Well, I think everybody wants it there,” Trump said during a press conference on Friday when asked if the global summit would be at his golf club and spa. The president’s comments about the summit being at Trump National Doral Miami came while he was answering questions from the press after he previously announced it would be in Miami. Doral, a Florida city, is located in Miami-Dade County and is just outside of the city of Miami.Trump said organizers had requested the summit be at his personal club. “There’s no money in it,” the president said, adding, “We want to make sure it’s good.”Trump also confirmed on Friday what had long been suspected: He will not attend this year’s Group of 20 summit in South Africa.“I won’t be going this year,” said Trump, adding that Vice President JD Vance will go in his place.This year’s summit is scheduled for November in Johannesburg.
