President Donald Trump took the scenic route after spending Saturday at his golf club in West Palm Beach, Fla., ensuring that he didn't pass any demonstrators calling for stronger gun laws as part of the nationwide "March for Our Lives."
Scores of people had lined the motorcade's usual path, which has been well-traveled by the president as he shuttles between his Mar-a-Lago estate and the Trump International Golf Club during weekend visits here.
But returning to Mar-a-Lago from the club on Saturday afternoon, Trump's motorcade took a longer route, crossing a different bridge into Palm Beach and then driving down Ocean Boulevard. No protesters were spotted.
The White House did not respond to a question about the reason for the detour.
