Another Great Day on the Golf Course and the Nation? Oh well . . .
Trump goes golfing while the nation burns . . .
As taken from The Daily Beast
“Amid the carnage of this week wrought by his own decision to start a global trade war and send the stock market plummeting, President Donald Trump experienced a personal victory after winning a round of golf at his own golf course.
On Saturday, Trump won the second-round matchup in a Senior Club Championship held at his very own Trump National Golf Club in Jupiter, Florida, which means he advances to the Championship Round held on Sunday.
Many in the media were quick to highlight just how tone-deaf the announcement sounded at the end of a tumultuous week, including CNN’s Jake Tapper, who declared, ‘Great news, everybody!!!!!’ while Meet the Press host Chuck Todd wrote on X, ‘Just astonishingly tone deaf. Crater the world economy then spend the weekend golfing against Washington General-like competitors. Seems fairly clear he’s not interested in running for any office again.’”
Others drew comparisons between the announcement of Trump’s win at Trump’s own golf course and North Korea’s Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un, with The Bulwark’s Sarah Longwell tweeting, “Our President crashed the economy at the end of the week and is spending the weekend golfing and putting ou[t] North Korea-style updates about it.”
It is not that hard to imagine his . . . (you fill it in).
