Trump Works the Weekend – #FakeNews Media Says He Went Golfing

Trump received updates on homeland security, the military, economy and healthcare.

So how did the fake news media report on it? They said he was golfing.

The New York Daily News tweeted that President Trump was golfing yesterday for the 9th time in 7 weeks. They showed a picture of the President on a golf course in their tweet. The problem was that this was not accurate.

In a tweet White House Director of Social Media Dan Scavino Jr. responded to the New York Daily News noting that their tweet was in error. Scavino pointed out that the President appeared to be at a golf course but for a lunch meeting.

.@TerenceReports @NYDailyNews your headline & story is false. You should correct. Facts: https://t.co/mIBlU9I8z2 https://t.co/gSdfK9NQBe

The NY Daily News KNEW he wasn’t golfing. The temp was in the 30s! They didn’t care about that. They only cared to smear the president. Shameful.

If they didn’t LIE about everything, they wouldn’t be called the Press.

Barry never held a cabinet meeting at a golf club much less on a weekend, that I can recall

The Establishment Media is now officially "outed" as the equivalent of the Soviet Union-era Pravda. And likely has been the case for decades. That's why when Trump takes on the MSM due to this very issue, no wonder why they're mad.

Trump is a workaholic . He and his team are absolutely working their butts off trying to get things straightened out.

They are getting more actual work done per day than Obama did per month. In fact, Obama never really worked at all. He attended dinners, gave an occasional speech to sycophants about how great he is, watched sports on tv and played golf.

Before long the mainstream media is going to notice how hard Trump is working, how much he’s getting done, and they’ll come up with some angle to try to get him to slow down. They’ll be wishing he really were playing golf instead of working so hard for the American people.

I’m reading 3 Days in January, Bret Baier’s book on Eisenhower and his presidency. Eisenhower’s golfing was well publicized at the time, as I personally recall. But Baier asserts that Eisenhower could be dog tired, go out golfing, and come back to the office raring to go.

Below the radar, Eisenhower also painted. He took that up at the suggestion of Winston Churchill, during WWII with all its stress.

And after Ike had his heart attack, his doctor urged him to paint more.

Out in the open on a golf course he owns. Maybe Trump is just trying to avoid being bugged.
