President-elect Trump returned to Washington on Saturday night after boarding an Air Force special mission plane for his historic return after four years.
Trump and wife Melania and their youngest son Barron made the trip from West Palm Beach, Fla., to the nation’s capital, waving to the crowd before climbing the stairs.
Trump marked his return to power with a celebration at his Trump National Golf Club in Sterling, Virginia, about 30 miles from Washington.
He addressed the crowd, praising Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin, Amazon founder Jeff Bezos and declaring his Middle East envoy, Steve Witkoff, “a great negotiator.” Witkoff last week helped negotiate a ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas, which is due to take effect on Sunday.
Shortly after his remarks, Trump took to the club’s balcony as guests gathered on the patio below for fireworks and a performance by tenor Christopher Macchio.

“The last 10 years have been a constant struggle — countless rallies, TV appearances, subpoenas, depositions and weeks in cold courtrooms,” Eric Trump wrote in a post. “Through endless attacks on my family, the company I run and the employees I care for, we’ve faced defamation, fake news, home raids and countless games designed to break us.”

He stood firm, truly possessing a steely courage. Our country is in strong hands. The madness is over. America in the Age of Renewal’.
