Those bone spurs prevented his serving in the military. Thank goodness they don't prevent his golf game.

If only he had more time to serve as Commander in Chief.

Trump Golf Count
Now be fair. He's been working hard in recent days to help the Saudis find the "rogue elements" that they say committed the Kashoggi assassination; he works hard every day to be certain that his friends Vlad and Kim-Jong and Rodrigo are shielded from criticism or suspicion; he goes to rallies on a frequent basis to assure his supporters that Mexican rapists will never cross the border to attack them in their sleep. And didn't you see the Kanye West variety show that he held in the Oval Office?

He IS a busy man.

Golf is only walking and standing, and you can finish playing golf whenever you are tired.
Its nothing like serving the military.

As for visiting troops, if you are visiting troops overseas you are not at the White House.
Believe it or not but serving as Commander in Chief is more effective when you are at the White House....

What's more important, visiting troops overseas in some dirty foreign city? Or flying all over the country holding rallies receiving adulation from his supporters?

Here's the list of rallies Trump has attended since his election. 51 so far, and at least 4 more before the mid-term.

Here's a piece from Military Times asking why Trump never visits troops overseas:

Trump has very clear priorities. Supporting our troops isn't one of them.

Rallies are more important, because winning the midterms is more important so you can pass legislation through the House and Senate.

Lightbulb Trump says he's too "busy" to visit troops overseas, plays 70 rounds of golf

It's obvious to anyone paying attention.

tRump only visits areas where he won in 2016 by a comfortable margin. He "rewards" those counties with a personal visit to rally the faithful to worship him as he spews insults and lies.

Besides, overseas combat bases don't have a tRump property nearby where he can profit by charging the taxpayers for his lodging.

But he DOES want a military parade.

For the second straight year as president, President Donald Trump chose not to visit American service members deployed around the world on Thanksgiving and instead spoke to them via teleconference from his private, for-profit country club in Palm Beach, Florida.

“Not surprised. He’s been avoiding them since the mid-’60s,” said Will Fischer, an Iraq War veteran

I'll take that challenge.
It takes money to fight the communist democrats. Its worth every penny spent.
Those bone spurs are coming in handy now that Trump is digging them into the ribs while riding the democrats to do something, anything, that will move the country towards prosperity. We have the best jockey but he drew the nag to ride in this race to "MAGA"

Nope, we'll get more, but...but...but...OBAMA! and they will completely ignore this truth.

See how easy that was and I never mentioned bend over boy the shameless traitor, who has a legacy of lies and deceit and Trump replaced in the WH.

You cons sure did last admin. Remember all the stuff about Michelle being a moocher with "free vacations?" Now the First Illegal Immigrant spends $174K in a hotel for half an afternoon and...crickets from you.

Not sure what more you need to get that Trump is a narcissistic con.
