President Trump wished Americans a happy new year from his Mar-a-Lago luxury resort in south Florida on Sunday, saying that his New Year’s wishes extended to not just his supporters but also his “enemies” and the “fake news” media.

“As our Country rapidly grows stronger and smarter, I want to wish all of my friends, supporters, enemies, haters, and even the very dishonest Fake News Media, a Happy and Healthy New Year. 2018 will be a great year for America!” Trump tweeted.

Hours earlier he had tweeted another New Year’s wish to Americans that included a video summarizing his accomplishments in 2017. 

The new Trump tweet echoed some of his past New Year’s wishes on the social media site, where he frequently shares his thoughts on the holidays.   

The president’s tweet comes as he rings in the new year from Mar-a-Lago, where he will attend a private end-of-year party. 

Prices for the party have risen up to $750 since Trump has taken office. 

The White House announced on Sunday Trump would be monitoring security precautions taking place across the country in the midst of celebrations. 

“The president has been briefed on security measures that are being taken by federal, state and local authorities to help ensure a safe and festive New Years Eve. We will continue to monitor throughout the night,” White House spokeswoman Helen Ferré said in a statement.
