    When Obama played golf, he was the worst president ever. But when Trump plays it, he is the genius dealmaker.

    “I’m going to be working for you,” he told a campaign rally crowd in August 2016. “I’m not going to have time to play golf.”

    “I love golf, but if I were in the White House, I don’t think I’d ever see Turnberry again,” he said in February 2016, referring to the famous course he owns in Scotland. “I don’t think I’d ever see Doral again,” he added, referring to the famous course he owns in Miami. “I don’t ever think I’d see anything – I just want to stay in the White House and work my ass off, make great deals, right? Who’s gonna leave?”

    We did this the last time he was president. No one gave a shit. Which is a shame because he’s doing this on our dime.

      Thats why he’s doing it. If I understand correctly we are getting charged for each time he stays at his properties because the “businesses” charge the government for whatever security/personnel that have to stay there, among other things.

    I, for one, would much rather Trump spend his time golfing than spending it diddling kids

      As if he’s not raping children there. Epstein once even “stole” one of his favorite raping children.

      I understand the unpleasantness of the word rape, but really think it’s better not to water down the gravity of his crimes with euphemisms like “diddle.”

    Well, clearly they need to build a golf course on the White House grounds. Then he’d never need to leave.
