Trump’s weekends in Florida include work and golf
PALM BEACH, Fla. — For the past three weekends, President Donald Trump has flown on Air Force One to his private Florida club, where in addition to work, he has dined with family and friends, attended parties — and played plenty of golf.
Not that long ago, Trump took issue with President Barack Obama for doing much the same. In May, Trump tweeted, “While our wonderful president was out playing golf all day, the TSA is falling apart, just like our government!”
On Sunday, Trump spent the morning at Trump International Golf Club, where he played with professional golfer Rory McIlroy. The White House at first said Trump played a few holes and did not disclose whom Trump was golfing with, but the next day a photo emerged on social media, and McIlroy told golf website nolayingup.com that he played 18 holes with Trump.
Asked if Trump played a full round with McIlroy, White House spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders said, “He intended to play a few holes and decided to play longer.”
