WASHINGTON, Nov.23 (Xinhua) -- Donald Trump celebrated his first Thanksgiving Day as U.S. president in his own resort of Mar-a-Lago palace in the southeastern state of Florida, marking the 100th day he spent at his private properties since taking office on Jan. 20 this year.

According to the New York Times' tracker, Trump has spent 28 days at Mar-a-Lago this year, surpassed by his stay at the Trump National Golf Club in New Jersey, where he has spent 39 days.

Mar-a-Lago is his second most visited property, which the president has frequently referred to as the "Winter White House" on Twitter.

In his presidential campaign, Trump repeatedly promised that if elected, he would "rarely leave the White House because there's so much work to be done," and he "would bot be a president that takes time off."
