Per pool, Trump has arrived at Trump National Golf Club in Sterling, VA at 9:39AM.

It is his 43rd day at a golf course as president.

You would think a republican so-called billionaire would pay for his own freaking luxury, gourmet, two-scoops golf outings. But no. The republican Draft-Dodger-in-Chief, Comrade Casino, sticks you and me with the bill.

Freaking republicans owe all honest, tax-paying Americans a big freaking refund for squandering our money on luxury gourmet shit for Comrade Casino. What a freakin ripoff.

Because my Sunday is just that boring. He was inaugurated on Jan 20th, so that's 27 weeks and 2 days....27*7=189+2=191. So....that's 22.51% of his presidency spent on his golf courses. Hmmm

President Trump visited his golf course in Virginia on Sunday morning.

The presidential motorcade arrived at the Trump National Golf Club in Sterling, Va. shortly after 9:30 a.m., according to a White House pool report.

It’s unclear whether Trump is golfing at the club. He was spotted in a red cap – believed to have the “Make America Great Again” slogan on it — and a white polo shirt.

This marks Trump’s 43rd trip to one of his golf properties since taking office, according to a NBC News tracker.

Remember how unglued Republicans got if President Obama wasn't in suit and tie at all times? Obviously, President Trump isn't taking the weekend off, because we all know how busy he is. But wearing a polo shirt while working? Scandalous! Where are the Sartorial Police from the Tea Bagger Brigade? They must be just beside themselves.
