Ding ding ding ding!

People have such short memories, don't they? I wish Obama had lied about how many hoops he'd be shooting and golf rounds he'd be playing instead of telling lies about Obamacare.

And let's not forget the weapons of mass destruction. And read my lips, no new taxes.

Yes, he lied.

What difference, at this point, does it make???

Somebody may have already said it, but at higher levels of business and politics, playing golf with people actually is how a lot of "work" gets done. A little hard to comprehend for us wage slaves who are outside swinging a hammer or tied to a desk all day, but it's true.

Then why did Trump spend so many years obsessing over how much Obama golfed? I mean, as a businessman and golfer, he would have known how this worked, right?

If the games where neither had worked were the only ones to be tallied up then Trump's number of games would drop dramatically and obama's number of games would barely budge downward.


Yep. Using the little illegal children didn't work for them so it's back to the drawing board. Golf is just a filler until they can come up with something else.
Trump is no Tiger Woods. He is supposed to work at work, not on the golf course, (not that he works while golfing, anyway.) And once again, this thread is not about Obama. Making it about Obama only makes Trump look worse, not better.

If in fact he was then is was just partisan jabbing. Trump more than anybody knows about the significance of "business-golf".

Because he knew it would resonate with his ‘base’ to imply that he was ‘like’ them. LOL. It worked.

Unlike obama not taking care of Louisiana while he golfed and they were flooding, Trump did things for hurricane victims while he was at the golf club - he even had the acting Homeland Security secretary, who was overseeng disaster response, there to discuss things with.

You do realize that there was no contact with officials on Puerto Rico during the storm and for awhile after it, right? They had made what plans they could have made before the storm hit. After the storm hit they had absolutely no way to know what kind of damage was done and what they had needed until the PR officials recovered their communication systems. Guess you think that they should have just sent hundreds of billions of $$$ in aid , ya know, just to make sure everything was covered. Good grief, the left is so unhinged that they cannot even use common sense.

I'm laughing at you posting a video of Trump handing out supplies in Louisiana, all it does is show Trump doing more for them than obama did

I'm laughing too because the "supplies" Trump handed out in Louisiana were toys that were liquidated. Usually emergency supplies consist of items such as bottled water, non-perishable foods, personal hygiene packs,...
