Former President Donald Trump is opening up one of his luxury resorts in Florida to host around 275 linemen who will be working to restore power after Hurricane Milton runs its course. Trump is hosting the linemen at the Trump National Doral Miami resort in South Florida, which is not projected to endure the worst of Hurricane Milton, Eric Trump wrote in a Wednesday social media post .
