Trump has gone golfing much more than Obama did. Liar!
Not even close to true that Obama played more golf than Trump.

As of late May, Trump had spent all or part of 248 days at a golf course, per @markknoller data; Obama had played 98 rounds at the same point of his presidency. https://t.co/UqtdTb03JT pic.twitter.com/QZAUvaQ5oT
For what it’s worth, Trump has played far, far more golf than Obama had at the same point in his first term.

The main reason anyone cares is that Trump repeatedly attacked Obama for playing so much golf.
Trump is golfing today. He attacked Obama for golfing when there were just two Ebola cases in the US —among the many other times. A round up: pic.twitter.com/yGpbN7qLWs https://t.co/ehoxafD88j

Trump tried to deflect criticism by doing more Obama-bashing: “Barack was always playing golf.”

Trump — who’d promised he‘d work too hard as president to golf — has spent way more time at golf clubs than Obama had at the same point. Some numbers:https://t.co/JWy1FAqFva
Remember when Trump used to criticize President Obama for golfing?

So far his golf trips have cost taxpayers more than $134,000,000 — 335 years of presidential salary.
It's not just that Trump went golfing today, it's that at the height of a pandemic, he's at his other job: making promotional appearances at his struggling business empire. https://t.co/ANxplTv2qH

A pathological narcissist acts only in what he believes to be his own interests, so he’s incapable of perceiving any conflict at all. https://t.co/g45x7Q0xZs

It has cost the American taxpayer $136,000,000.00
Sad!
