A true journalist would at least try to make a comparison to prior presidents. Zero golfed a regularly, but what really set him apart was the fact he golfed with a very small number of other people. Always the same folks. No work was being done, just a game. Golf is used in business as a way to get some time with people and Getting to know them better so the business relationship is much more efficient.
One of my former bosses set up a golf foursome getting President Clinton together with Jack Welch. Advantageous for both and their job functions to build a relationship. It would be interesting to see who is golfing with Trump and I am sure it isn’t the same foursome nearly every time like Zero.
Obama was “cool” for the vacation spots that he frequented.
Typical AP...All Propaganda.
The clear the course for a President so he can play a round in 3 hours rather than 4 1/2. Who cares if he loves golf, he is an excellent golfer.
I also saw that title and read the article and immediately thought, there is no way they would write that about Obama. He played golf multiple times, and the media didn’t care. He and his family traveled every summer and at Christmas, and he didn’t do a working vacation like Trump is doing. The left has double standards on this.
This kind of knockdown only apply to the Republican Presidents. IKE played golf and went fishing for 8 years, that’s all they reported back then, nothing has changed. Ike was an honest politician, oh wait, he wasn’t a politician, he was a leader.
AP = All Propaganda
Don’t believe these Lying Leftist Media outlets that proved themselves during the 2016 campaign to be operatives of the DNC and intentional liars. They are presumed to be lying and we should presume what they publish is a lie. The presumption can only be rebutted with the outlet providing clear and convincing evidence they are not lying.
Why not post the TRUTH about the lies? You don't have to use the liar as the source to post a headline that alerts readers to a published lie. Use yourself as the source or a reasonably reliable source that addresses what the Lying Leftist source is saying. That way you have a headline and a source that your readers can reasonably rely on and they go away more informed about the lie AND the truth.
If we’re told a lie, don’t repeat it. Neutralize the lie by speaking the truth. Lies aren’t defeated by repeating the lie. Lies are defeated by repeating the truth. We should have our eyes on the prize - in this case, politically, what it takes to recover our Free Constitutional Republic. That should be what we major on and focus on.
IMO, if a poster can't be bothered to do that, then they shouldn't post. If they're going to be bothered to post, do it right. We're on a mission here.
Does he actually play golf at Bedminster or at his better-known Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida? Yes, but it’s hard to say how much. The White House won’t say, and reporters are barred from getting close enough to see. ................................ Ahhhh, conjecture reporting, that’s the ticket! Even if they were allowed, it would still be left wing slanted reporting.
These two writers just drip with bias. They are perfect examples of why I totally agree with President Trump that much of the media is the enemy of the American people. They are not journalists but propagandists for the Left/Dems posing as journalists. What is good for the country does not matter to them if it does not comport to the Leftist ideology and they attack it under the guise of news, and that is why they are the enemy of the American people.
Yes, AssPress, lets compare Trump’s and Obama’s work ethic.
You stepped in it now.
But he’s rarely seen in a suit jacket and tie and has proved to be more unchecked at the property, which is dotted with trees, ponds and green lawns.
Yet the two pictures in the article show him wearing a suit and tie.
The Left is mentally ill. Just spend a minute looking at MSNBC. Run by a bunch of OCD-addled idiots.
Work is measured by output NOT appearances. Trump is slaughtering bozo in this regard.
barf alert
So, these 2 twits would prefer everyone get back to work and confirm Cavanaugh? Good to know.
The Left doesn’t care about contradictions or hypocrisy. They know that the normies are distractable and have short memories.
If DingleBarry did it, so what?
What matters is that Trump is doing it.
They can be hypocritical because they know they will get away with it.
This is why our Constitution limits the president to two four year terms (max of 10 years). The only president to serve more than two terms (before the constitutional amendment) died in office and was a quivering mess when he died.
Speaking of FDR, I was recently reading about the 1943 "Big Three" meeting in Tehran that FDR had with Churchill and Stalin. The meeting was almost not able to be pulled off due to the constitutional requirements of the president to be available to sign paperwork. Elaborate measures had to be taken to ensure that documents could reach the president in a timely manner while in Tehran. With modern technology, that is no longer a concern no matter where the president travels but that episode underscores the fact that POTUS is literally harnessed to the job 24/7.
On a much smaller scale, I've been in management for the past 20 years and I can tell you that I honestly have no idea anymore what it is like to be on truly on vacation. Sure, I have "unlimited PTO" in my position and don't have to punch a time clock. But no matter where I go, I am constantly available to handle situation that come up. In fact, while I was typing this reply on a Saturday afternoon, I have already gone to my work email inbox twice as I have a team handling a customer situation at the moment.
Last winter, I spent two weeks on Marco Island and still had to handle multiple conference calls, had to deal with crises and give my approval by email on multitude transactions and other matters.
The President of the United States has 10x the workload (at least) so I'm not complaining about my situation. Nor am I begrudging President Trump that fact that he spends much of his time Mar-A-Lago or at his golf resort in Bedminster.
President Trump has undone in less than two years most of what Obama did in eight years. Now that is high speed, low drag.
The blatant derogatory framing of the narrative instead of just reporting the facts qualifies you as propaganda and FAKE NEWS.
