President Trump plays round of golf with Rory Mcllroy in Florida

Over the weekend, McIlroy played a tuneup round with President Donald Trump in Florida.

By comparison, Barack Obama – according to Mark Knoller, a White House correspondent for CBS News – played 333 rounds of golf while serving as president.

But when confronted with McIlroy’s comment that they played 18 holes, Sanders immediately backtracked, saying the president “intended to play a few holes and chose to play longer”.

Trump has also played with “The Big Easy” Ernie Els and LPGA tour star Lexi Thompson.

It’s a judgment call as to whether Trump’s weekends at Mar-a-Lago count as vacation time.

“You don’t turn down a round of golf with the American president but you do turn down a round of golf with this American president”, said sports journalist Ewan McKenna. By comparison, Obama played his first round of golf as President on April 26, 2009, at Andrew Air Force Base.

Trump’s ever-changing views on golf now allow for him to play with golf pros and other famous people.

Obama and Trump are hardly the first presidents to hit the links with regularity.

The White House goes to considerable lengths to keep Mr. Trump’s golf game away from scrutiny.

Second, media outlets need to be more professional when covering Donald Trump’s time as president. They also said that as well as working, the president has partied and played lots of golf.

Trump can’t do self-deprecation, but his press conference last Thursday made it clear that he is essentially leading the life of a student, a freelance writer or Ronald Reagan and spending most of his waking hours watching television. “But always play with leaders of countries and people that can help us; don’t play with your friends all the time”. At that time the president said “look what’s happening last night in Sweden” as he alluded to past terrorist attacks in Europe.
