2. When the going got tough, the tough went golfing.

3. Several analyses have calculated that Trump, as of October 2019, incurred around $109 million in taxpayer spending related to his golf outings, which is close to the amount of money a president would make if he were being paid $400,000 annually for 278.5 years.

4. He said he wouldn’t have time to play golf when he became president, even chided Obama for playing. Can this story be true?

5. And he still sucks at it. The one time he played in a tournament where he couldn’t cheat, though apparently he did try, he averaged 89 shots. That is decent for a weekend golfer, it is not multiple club championship level. And that was nearly two decades ago

6. Lie

7. trump golfed 1/3 of his presidency, and if you include all the “executive” time — Trump truly was a “Reality TV president”

8. I wonder how even more time was wasted by Trump just watching TV(??)

9. Yeah, we know.

10. Well when ur political opponent is essentially defeating themselves why not golf

11. That’s not the problem. The problem is that he spent 3 years of what should have been his retirement playing President.

12. But what about Biden on the beach?

13. Year golfing, year ignoring dying COVID patients and mismanaging a pandemic, and the world is still suffering after his two years of doing things

14. Well that officially tells me Jared Kushner was running our country someone who could not pass a Yankee White Background Check! UNBELIEVABLE

15. Less time to be causing chaos in politics

16. Quick, do Biden. Something about 40% of his presidency now?

17. And America was safer when he was golfing. 

18. The Week state that in one year of his presidency Trump was the 10th highest paid pro athlete. Sry forgot which year.

19. And 2 years watching Fox News and 1 year fantasizing about Melanoma.

20. If Trump is president, I’d *RATHER* he’s wasting time playing golf

21. And you honestly think he’s going to change his ways if he is elected again? Don’t bet on it. Here’s what DJT does to steal, um, pretend to be POTUS:

    – Spends 30% of his time holding 20 minute meetings and a 40 minute photo-up, calls it “an honest days work” and goes back upstairs to watch CNN/FOX for 12 hours

    – 25% of the time playing golf and cheating

    – 20% flying to Florida

    – 15% interviewing at FAUX news

    – 7% telling us to inject bleach

    – 1% selling shit through the Oval Office photo-op

    – 1% trying to convince everyone how “intelligent” he is

    – 1% banging porn-stars and cheating on his wife who hates him

22. And Biden has spent his whole 4 years on vacation and your point is?

23. Now do watching Cable TV

24. Only fools will vote for this convicted criminal.

25. Worst. Employee. Ever.

26. why does anyone complain when the guy they don’t like is golfing. I fucking hate tRump, I wish he played golf for his whole term because then he wouldn’t be governing.
