A 23-year-old man was nabbed by Secret Service agents early Tuesday after hopping the wall around President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort, telling officers he wanted to “spread the gospel” to
Trump and wed his 18-year-old granddaughter, Kai. Anthony Thomas Reyes was busted just after midnight and confessed to arresting officers that he had scaled the wall surrounding the Palm
Beach, Fla., property. Wednesday marked at least the second time Reyes had been caught trying to get inside the exclusive club, with the previous instance occurring on New Year’s Eve. Reyes
was initially charged by state authorities with trespassing, though federal charges are likely to follow. Trump, 78, was in Washington at the time of the incident. EXPLORE MORE “The
President is aware of this incident and has been briefed,” a White House spokesperson told The Post. The Secret Service did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Mar-a-Lago is
a federally protected area, and all guests are subject to security screenings prior to entering the property, which has numerous signs posted warning people not to trespass. The club was
not accepting visitors or guests, and gates guarded by Secret Service personnel were closed at the time Reyes scaled the wall. It’s unclear if Kai, the daughter of the president’s eldest
son, Donald Trump Jr. and his ex-wife Vanessa, was at Mar-a-Lago at the time of the incident. The 18-year-old is a rising senior at the Benjamin School in Jupiter, Fla., and an aspiring
professional golfer who has committed to play collegiately at the University of Miami. On Sunday, she placed second in a tournament at the Village Golf Course in Royal Palm Beach, less than
15 miles from Mar-a-Lago, according to the Palm Beach Post. Kai’s social media posts suggest she had recently returned to the US after a trip to the Bahamas. The teen has a massive social
media following — nearly 2 million on Instagram and over 1 million YouTube subscribers — and frequently vlogs her escapades, including trips to the White House and UFC tournaments with her
grandfather. Kai burst onto the national spotlight at last year’s Republican National Convention, where she delivered a speech praising Trump just ahead of his formal nomination as the
Republican candidate for president. “To me, he’s just a normal grandpa. He gives us candy and soda when our parents aren’t looking, he always wants to know how we’re doing in school,”
Trump’s eldest of 11 grandchildren said in her speech. Kai’s protective father warned boys to keep their distance after her speech. “Get away, you little bastards, and stay away,” Trump
Jr., told Fox News “Ingraham Angle” host Laura Ingraham after his daughter’s profile surged after her speech.
