Heard a theory the Trump went to Afghanistan so it wouldn't be suspicious when he didn't go golfing

[captain queeg]

Made sense to me. He hasn’t golfed in a month for the first time he’s been president.

1. hmmm he hasn't golfed since trip to hospital?

2. It's more likely that his handlers talked him into the trip now that an election year is coming up,

and he has to be seen as Supporting The Troops (especially after he just took flak for shitting all over the Navy). But it is odd that he hasn't been hauling his blubbery orange ass around a golf course lately. He'll be spending more time at Mierda Loco now that it's winter (and he's officially a Florida Man), so let's see if he puts on a golf shirt so we can see his gorgeous chest and saddles up his golf cart.

10. The Spencer Story is the only

reason Moscow Don went to Afghanistan. You bet Leningrad Lindsey was the Story Board master behind this.

11. That is quite likely.

3. Not true......

He had a same gap last year, 10-14-18 to 11-21-18. And 11-25-18 to 02-02-19. Winter!

4. Weird that he wouldn't just go down to Mar-A-Lago and golf or something.

8. He played on Wednesday and again today.

He also had the same late October to Thanksgiving week break in 2017 and 2018.

Weird that the OP didn't check https://trumpgolfcount.com/displayoutings before posting.

6. Have you seen this thread on Twitter about maybe a new handler for trump?

Link to tweet

I told you about 3 weeks ago, that Trump Tweets changed abruptly and totally. Since then he's had maybe 3 or 4 lapses of only a few Tweets. Someone is HANDLING him. Now this Afghanistan visit? Is SMART POLITICS for 2020. Trump is being managed by someone competent (& is scared)

7. Sounds like a good cover for the medical problems. Certainly not honoring the troops.

Not that he honors anybody anywhere he goes!1

12. No. While Dems are conducting impeachment hearings...

he's trying to portray himself as ultra-patriotic and a capable commander-in-chief who values the troops. Let's not over-think this. There's no way he's heading into an election year without spending T-giving with troops in the Middle East...

13. A trip across the world is a lot more trying on a body than a game of golf.
