Donald Trump Jr. posted a video on social media Saturday of his family using the White House bowling alley.
In the short clip, his wife, Vanessa, is seen bowling — heels and all!
“Family bowling session at The White House. [VanessaTrump] doing pretty well considering she’s in heels,” Trump Jr tweeted.
The bowling alley is used more by White House staffers, Secret Service and the occasional party loyalist than presidents. It’s not clear if former President Barack Obama ever used the lane, though he reportedly spent his 48th birthday bowling at Camp David.
Obama did catch grief for a plan to refurbish the two bowling lanes — one is in the basement of the White House under the North Portico and the second is in the Old Executive Office Building — with environmentally-friendly material. He eventually ditched the plan.
There is a photograph of former President Richard Nixon using the facility:
Of course, no fun is allowed when you have liberal snowflakes crawling out of their safe places by the thousands to protest the Trump presidency.
A scan of social media shows plenty of indignation from the perpetually offended that the Trump family would dare enjoy themselves while liberal women are in the streets marching against self-manufactured repression.
There was also some incessant whining about the floor being damaged — the Trump daughter-in-law took one go at it:

Vanessa has every right to bowl in heels if SHE wants. She is a woman!
Even more so if a trap door was installed in the press room...with a activation button on the Presidential Podium.
There it is! I thank you.
We’re I in the big chair, I’d have it no other way!
My understanding was that Nixon was an avid bowler. Heck I remember my Dad belonging to bowling leagues back in the 80s.
I don’t think community leagues are as popular as they used to be. They still exist, but aren’t quite as popular now.
Sounds like he should be the one wearing the high heels...
While throwing a baseball?
Obama said his bowling score would do well in Special Olympics.
Crass
Not a peep about the ahole putting his feet up on the desk in the Oval Office.
What is disrespectful about bowling?
Trump should install and use a pistol range in the WH basement.<<<
Great idea!!
Gosh, bowling in the WH vs. golfing all over the world - horrifying.....
Disrespectful? I’m not getting it.
Or Monica doing her service work .............
Bowling is such a divisive, controversial topic, I am surprised this didn’t come up sooner.
FAKE NEWS WARNING:
“It’s not clear if former President Barack Obama ever used the lane”...BS!!!
That’s where he made the joke that he bowls like a special Olympian.
Game, set, match, LIARS.
