Donald Trump has a golf problem - CNNPolitics
He slammed his predecessor for playing golf allegedly far too much.President Donald Trump spent the past five days at the self-dubbed "Southern White House" at his Mar-a-Lago resort. How did he spend his time? Well, he played golf Wednesday and Thursday. And Friday, Saturday and Sunday too.
Also,SBNation counted 27(!) times between 2011 and 2016 that Trump attacked Obama for playing golf when he should have been -- in Trump's mind -- working.
And during the 2016 campaign, Trump regularly harped on Obama's golf game as a sign of a lack of commitment to the job.
However, when he was elected President, he has golfed at around 10 times Obama's rate of golfing while president.Trump also repeatedly insisted that although he loved golf -- he has said it is his primary form of exercise! -- he wouldn't be playing if he was elected president.
"If I win I may never see my property -- I may never see these places again," he said in August 2016. "But because I'm going to be working for you, I'm not going to have time to go golfing, believe me. Believe me. Believe me, folks."
