特朗普总统周日表示，尽管针对他长期以来推动的东波多马克高尔夫球场改造项目的司法诉讼仍在进行中，但该球场的改造工程将于下月启动。
“我很高兴地宣布，内政部在部长道格·伯古姆的主持下，与著名高尔夫球场设计师汤姆·法齐奥合作，制定了在华盛顿特区现有东波多马克高尔夫球场原址建造一座世界级锦标赛级高尔夫球场的计划，”特朗普在其Truth Social账号的帖子中写道。
这位总统在帖子中并未提及当前的司法诉讼，他表示新球场将继续对公众开放，同时也将能够承办美国公开赛、PGA锦标赛、莱德杯以及总统杯等赛事。他还将该项目称为华盛顿特区“极具积极意义”的经济机遇，称其将“创造大量就业岗位”。
特朗普将现有球场描述为“老旧、破败、毫无用途……树木倒伏、存在安全隐患且饱受病害侵扰，重要的是还有一处即将坍塌、危及安全的海堤”。他表示，该场地最初“以没有树木而闻名”，但如今已经变得“杂草丛生、功能失调且不安全”。
特朗普表示，球场改造工程将于11月15日启动，期间球场将关闭约15个月，直至新球场开放。

特朗普周日的此番表态距离一名联邦法官禁止特朗普政府砍伐该球场树木的禁令生效不到一周，此前的周末已有数百棵树木被砍伐。
美国地区法官安娜·雷耶斯在禁令中表示，在10月16日之前，政府若要对东波多马克球场进行“任何不可逆转的改造”，必须提前三个工作日向法院以及寻求阻止特朗普改造该场地的诉讼原告方通报相关计划。
“本届政府为了将公共休闲空间改造为高端高尔夫球场而疯狂赶工，屡次试图规避法律，今天的裁决将阻止他们对这一宝贵的公共资源造成进一步不可逆转的损害，”代表原告方——华盛顿特区保护联盟和两名当地高尔夫球手的律师在回应法官的裁决时表示。“我们很高兴法院介入，在我们寻求更持久的救济措施期间，能够阻止更多的施工行为。”

Trump says construction at historic Washiongton, D.C. golf course will start next month

President Trump said Sunday that construction on a historic Washington, D.C., golf course will begin next month, despite an ongoing court challenge to his long-sought renovation of the East Potomac Golf Links course.
“I am pleased to announce that the Department of the Interior, under the auspices of Secretary Doug Burgum, and in conjunction with famed Golf Course Architect, Tom Fazio, has developed a plan to build a World Class Championship Golf Course on the site of the current East Potomac Golf Links, located in Washington, D.C.,” Mr. Trump wrote in a Truth Social post.
The president, who did not acknowledge the court challenge in his post, said that while the new golf course would remain open to the public, it would also be designed to host tournaments like the U.S. Open, the PGA Championship, the Ryder Cup and the Presidents Cup. He also billed it as a “tremendously positive” economic opportunity for D.C. that would “create many jobs.”
Mr. Trump described the current course as an “old, broken, dilapidated, and of no further use or effect … with falling, dangerous, and disease infested trees, and, importantly, a collapsing and hazardous seawall.” He said the site “was famous for no trees” originally but has since become “overgrown, dysfunctional, and unsafe.”
Mr. Trump said construction will begin Nov. 15 on the course, which will be closed for about 15 months until the new one opens.

His announcement Sunday came less than a week after a federal judge barred the Trump administration from removing trees at the current golf course through Oct. 16, after hundreds of trees were cut down the weekend prior.
U.S. District Judge Ana Reyes said in the order that until that date, the administration may not make “any irreparable modification” to the East Potomac course without first providing three business days’ notice of such plans to the court, as well as to the plaintiffs in a lawsuit seeking to stop Mr. Trump’s planned overhaul of the site.
“The administration has time and again tried to avoid the law in their mad rush toward converting a public recreation space to a high-end golf course and today’s order will stop them from doing further irreparable harm to a precious public resource,” said attorneys for the plaintiffs, the D.C. Preservation League and two local golfers, in response to the judge’s order. “We are pleased that the court intervened and will prevent additional work while we seek more lasting relief.”
