Former President Donald Trump gestures during a campaign rally in Waco, Texas, on March 25, 2023. But what Democrats face is much deeper than the usual finger-pointing by a losing campaign or speculation about the next set of presidential primary candidates.

LinkedIn added space for users to include their preferred pronouns in their profiles in March 2021.

She said that, ultimately, while some people find comfort in sharing their preferred pronouns, what that says about a person might be limited.

And some Mar-a-Lago members have been offered money by those seeking to be taken to the club as a guest and rub elbows with Trump, three sources familiar with the situation told CNN. There are no restrictions on who members can bring as guests, and outsiders are trying to take advantage of that while it still holds. Advisers insist that Trump’s transition is much more orderly this time around, and by all accounts, the transition itself has steered clear of the chaos. Trump advisers have held formal meetings with the transition team and the president-elect during the day at the resort, presenting him with plans for policy and personnel. Mar-a-Lago, the stone-walled oceanfront estate that Trump labeled the “Winter White House,” has long been a source of headaches for national security and intelligence professionals.
