Will President Trump spend the majority of his weekends at Mar-A-Lago?

Honestly Trump never would have been elected back in the 1980's. His comments and behavior would have been a non starter. That doesn't even get into his Russian ties which would have been a non starter.

 

North Korea's on the verge of testing their sixth nuclear weapon. What a time to hit the links again!

 

Guys,

He's going to stop going when the weather gets to 90 degrees. I'm sure he has some vacation resort in NY or NJ that he'll go to instead.

 

Trump seems lazy and unwilling to do the work of the presidency. His biggest accomplishment was getting a USSC justice approved, and that was really dependent on timing of opening and Congress changing the rules under which a USSC justice is confirmed. So even hard to give him any credit. More important, he is batting "0 for the season" with respect to any legislative victories.

Here's where Trump stands in comparison to Barack Obama, George W. Bush and Bill Clinton on some of the milestones — good, bad and ugly.

First Supreme Court Justice confirmed

• Trump - April 7, 2017 (Day 78)
• Obama - August 6, 2009 (Day 199)
• Bush - September 29, 2005 (Day 1714 - second term)
• Clinton - August 3, 1993 (Day 196)

First major legislative defeat

• Trump - House calls off vote on health care bill - March 24, 2017 (Day 64)
• Obama - Senate votes overwhelmingly to block Obama's plans to close Gitmo - May 20, 2009 (Day 121)
• Bush - Senate scales back Bush's tax cut plan by $450 billion - April 6, 2001 (Day 77)
• Clinton - Senate abandons Clinton's jobs and spending bill - April 21, 1993 (Day 92)

First major legislative victory

• Trump - TBD
• Obama - American Recovery and Reinvestment Act ("Stimulus bill") - February 17, 2009 (Day 29)
• Bush - Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001 ("Bush tax cut") - June 7, 2001 (Day 139)
• Clinton - Family and Medical Leave Act - February 5, 1993 (Day 16)

First high-profile U.S. military operation targeting a foreign nation

• Trump - U.S. missile airstrike on Syrian airfield - April 6, 2017 (Day 77)
• Obama - U.S. and allies open assault against the government of Libyan president Moammar Gadhafi - March 19, 2011 (Day 789)
• Bush - U.S. and British aircraft bomb Iraqi radar and anti-aircraft sites near Baghdad - February 16, 2001 (Day 28)
• Clinton - U.S. missile airstrike on Iraqi Intelligence Service headquarters in retaliation for an apparent plot to assassinate former President Bush - June 26, 1993 (Day 158)

Trump's Day
The president is in Mar-a-Lago for the weekend and has no public events planned.

What were other presidents doing on April 14?

• Barack Obama delivers a speech defending his administration's moves to shore up the economy
• George W. Bush's secretary of state, Colin Powell, says the administration "isn't disengaging from anywhere" around the world
• Bill Clinton addresses a summer jobs conference in suburban Virginia
• George H.W. Bush and congressional leaders announce a deal for a $28 billion deficit-reduction plan
• Ronald Reagan welcomes Columbia astronauts home from their space voyage
• Jimmy Carter scraps a plan to send $50 tax rebates to Americans due to a better-than-expected economic recovery

TL;DR--only Trumper wing nuts think he's anything other than an absolute disgrace of a president. Good write up but it's only for those opposed to Agent Orange. RL may rebut but I doubt he'll read it either.

 

even better!

So you think being President is like a Monday thru Friday thing?

 

A buffoon and a narcissist. As for the OP, the answer is obviously yes.

 

To your question, I ask...do you actually believe that being at the White House M-F equals being presidential??? If so...you are clearly missing the mark.

 

Right, because it's the weekend; nothing ever happens on the weekend.

 

Well, to be fair, he's got a bad ass golf cart.

 

Who suggested that things do not happen over the weekends?...I stated that its none of your damn business where the POTUS is during his weekends...whether he is working or not.

 

A certain poster remains silent. Hippocrates is on the line.

TELLING.

 

According to your president and party leaders, the answer is "it does matter". Need we bring up all the tweets, quotes and sound bites about Obama playing golf or the cost of his travel, etc? You can claim that you didn't hold that view point but it damn well does matter since party and president have made such an issue over it in the past.

 

How are you so stupid

 

Yes I do. I don't think I am. You're cool with his trips? Completely 100% cool?

 

well, these people think the President should be working more instead of playing golf. Maybe you will recognize a few of them?









Or maybe even this guy?

Or perhaps it was only wrong when Obama did it, and not wrong when Trump does?

 

As the ones paying for it, how is it not our business?
