In his announcement of his new NSC pick, Trump began the announcement to the gathered press by stating he has "been working all weekend" in coming up with the McMasters pick. In fact, he played a full 18-rounds of golf today, at least.
CNN is ripping him on his hypocrisy, noting how he criticized Obama for playing golf and how Trump repeatedly said he would never play golf because he would be too busy working:

Rory McIlroy snitched on Trump playing golf with him today:

I have no doubt that it will continue too. He seems to be adding a night with each trip. I would not be surprised to see him eventually spending only a night or two a week in Washington. And his supporters will cheer him on like good little lemmings.

(16,104 posts)he is still on the job while sleeping, eating - playing golf.
Owes a big apology to Obama - if he had any class.
Or maybe - if he is still there - after he discovers what the job is.

(51,550 posts)Amazing how he and Putin have the same taste in interior decorating. Trump is going to make the White House like like Putin's summer dacha.

(2,474 posts)...that Trump would actually have the White House itself painted gold (FWIW, impeachment odds then were nearly even, @11-10).
PS--my spouse maintains that Trump has such a King Midas complex that he seeks to become golden himself, from his yellow dyed hair to his yellow-orange spray tan. My own theory is that he's King Midas in reverse: Everything he touches turns to shit.

(14,047 posts)The best score. Fake news if you are not talking about golf without talking about his about his score.
Golf pros are talking about his score.

Shameful. No person of integrity would accept such behavior.

(51,550 posts)But I am guessing Shitler takes snack breaks at the turn, plus all the preening pictures. Probably took up at least 6 hours of his day for his round with McIlroy alone. And it appears that was not his only round of golf this weekend.

(82,849 posts)I'm guessing none of these fine fellows was reaching for his wallet at any time during the day. Did everyone enjoy paying for President Trump's round at his own golf club? If he'd gone somewhere else to chase the little white ball, he wouldn't have pocketed any money.
