Have the press asked Trump why he keeps taking weekends off to go golfing?

I know it's pretty far down on the list of the "I'm grossly incompetent and/or paid by Russians" factors, but I feel like it would make him the angriest. It's really irrefutable hypocrisy.

Reporters should start printing out giant blowups of his tweets like Bernie Sanders did and bringing them to pressers.

is that of a narcissistic sociopath; aka, a businessman. He believes he deserves for us to pay for his weekly golfing merely due to him being our president.

That we should get a "meme thing" started featuring the man in his golf costume. He looks great in his golf costume!

when he and the GOP are portraying the country as being so financial strapped that severe austerity in federal spending is needed? We can send Pence down to Florida to join him in a separate airplane, and dispatch 100 Secret Service agents to watch the Children of the Con ski in Aspen, while cutting school lunches, Meals on Wheels, toxic waste cleanup, Pell Grants, public transit, and damn near everything anyone has come up with to improve our collective quality of life in the past century. I can't take four years of this. Impeachment can't come soon enough.

There have been a number of articles about it this weekend. The press is noticing it especially in light of his tweets.

However, I stand my assumption that the Dump travels to Mar-a-Lago frequently because he's still doing business that enriches his own pocket &/or as favors to friends of his businesses. I don't believe it was coincidental that he "crashed" that weekend at Mar-a-Lago with PM Abe.
