If I were the president I would spend all of my time on the mini-golf course, because nothing's cooler than a putting through a windmill when surrounded by Secret Service.

Isn't there a putt putt at Camp David?

He made a big deal out of it on the campaign trail, but everyone knows the President has a lot of down time and were he to win, he would be playing golf.
Obama played a lot on the golf course. 306 rounds, to be exact.

If Trump does the same, I will gripe as much.

Either way, the hypocrisy of the media and the left is outstanding.

Wait, you want him to personally verify to you that he plays golf on the weekend? Seriously, it's a stupid issue to harp about.

Now, if he plays golf every day of the week, then that might be something to harp about.

Aren't you the one that wanted to talk about this subject? I don't care if he plays golf, I just think its funny they are going to so much effort to hide it.

Again, you are trying to say that Trump is hiding it.

All you really have is that Trump's aides aren't disclosing what is going on at the golf courses Trump visits. Which, less we forget, has some business associated with it (although, not as much as if business partners were to go out golfing).

Would you like national security secrets to be released to the public because you wanted to find out what Trump's golf game is like? Wait, of course you would, as long as it makes Trump look bad/inept.

Apparently Trump is golfing too much. Cause people are complaining about it. Kinda hard to avoid that when you own a bunch of golf clubs.
I remember seeing that. Apparently He whined about Obama golfing then proceeding to golf at like a 10x the frequency Obama did

/facepalm

You expected Trump and company to be above hypocrisy?!

/facepalm

Ohh another good example of how fanatical the progressives are on here.

President Obama was in office eight years and played 306 rounds of golf.

President Trump has been in office one month and visited a golf club that he's been a member of for a very long time and actually owns, six times so far. The rumor is that he's played golf some of those times but very little confirmation.

But the rumor of six golf sessions is more then the confirmed 306 rounds of golf to a Progressive cause the guy who did the six is on "The Other Team".

Furthermore, Trump isn't a "real golfer" and has a laissez faire approach to the game. He just happens to own a bunch of golf properties and does business on them.

And to those still wondering WTF is really going on, lots of business discussions get done on the Golf Course. It provides for the perfect excuse for a group of men to get together and plenty of open privacy for them to discuss what they need to discuss in secrecy without being accused of talking in secret. Four dudes golfing for a few hours is nothing out of the ordinary. The fact that two of those people work for different financial firms that are doing business isn't something people would pick up on, especially as they just work for C staff people. Of course one of those companies is looking to poach someone from the other company, but needs to do a feeler without any form of communication on the record.

Lots of business people are shitty golf players who pretend to be fans to use it as an excuse to do other business. It's where a lot of promotions are discussed as well as things that wouldn't pass an investigation by HR or any governmental agency.

You seem pretty invested to write such a response to a couple of quips.

I would say that Trump is a pretty decent amateur golfer.

He's 70, he shot an 80 which is 8 over par. Sounds decent for his age.

From No Laying Up which is a golf website? blog? web magazine?

Quote:
Rory McIlroy teed it up with the president of the United States, Donald Trump on Sunday morning at Trump International. McIlroy rode in the cart for all 18 holes with the president, and told No Laying Up the following:

“He probably shot around 80. He’s a decent player for a guy in his 70’s!”

... Apparently this news contradicts a previous statement made by White House spokesman Sarah Huckabee Sanders. She told reporters on Sunday that the president “played a couple of holes” earlier that day but that she didn’t believe it was “a full round.”...

Well, that's certainly hiding Trump's golfing activities

Also, for those who want a good laugh.

You can't make this up. People seem to believe that Sanders is a working class hero!

The very person who would sooner institute policies that destroy the economy and make life in America miserable for all is a "working class hero"

Talk about out of touch!

He comes closer to articulating the needs of the working class than anyone else in DC. Sad.

You also realize that Sanders was a member of the Communist party and an avid supporter of the USSR and other oppressive Communist regimes right? He eventually changed his description to "Socialist" as the Communist party dies but never his beliefs or policies. He's so far on the left that he makes the Democrats look like moderates.

He was for a 90% marginal tax rate that would go to 100% to that nobody would earn over a million USD per year.

Here is a quote from him

Quote:
Democracy means public ownership of the major means of production, it means decentralization, it means involving people in their work. Rather than having bosses and workers it means having democratic control over the factories and shops to as great a degree as you can.

It gets uglier as you dig. Bernie had exactly zero chance of winning in a general election, only True Believers actually thought he could appeal to the majority. Liberals can't stand him, only Progressive worship him as he's part of the "Global Citizenship" movement.

***.

He rescinded an Obama executive order that forced public schools to let kids use whatever bathroom they "identified" with. If the school didn't allow it then Obama's Department of Education would deny them federal funding under Title IX.

That was one of those issues that really pissed people off. The left forcing everyone to follow their social engineering instead of allowing each state to decide on their own with their own elected officials. ***like that is what's costing the left political power in the USA.

Also couldn't find anything recent on Trump and Assault Rifles, he's been very pro-gun last year so don't see how that would happen.

But but the states might not chose the obviously "right" choice and instead those of the righteous faith need to ensure the "right" choices are made by forcing everyone to obey us.

I don't think Trump cares about social issues that much really. Other than abortion. That is the only social issue he expressed a strong opinion.

1. Humor learn it live it love it.

2. That would be taking away that transgender protection

3. Don't search Trump and Assault Rifles, search 4th Circuit Appellate Court and Assault Rifles.

and

4. If you find the sentence to be *** then now you might get how people have felt over the last 8yrs with all the *** that has nothing to do with a presidential administration being attributed to it.
