When Herbert Hoover was POTUS he slept only 4 hours a day and was a known workaholic and the country ended up in a depression. I think policy either passed by congress or EO and the results of those policies are more of a yard stick on the job of POTUS. End results not how many hours are spent on the greens or leisure. That is Idiocracy.
Trump is president 24 hours a day. It does not matter if he shows up in the Oval Office. People need to get over it. As long as the country is safe, he is doing his job.

Just because you wish it doesn't mean it is so!
People are better off than they have been in 30 years. OMG, how can that be?
We already know that he golfs way more frequently than Obama did and dedicates time to how he's being perceived by the media and writing his aggrieved Twitter posts. Other than that, he holds his rallies in Nebraska or wherever. Not surprising if he's not really working. He probably still hasn't figured out healthcare which, you know, is really hard (who knew).
The fact that Trump himself owns numerous Golf courses is something the leftist Trump haters always leave out.
My feeling is they use the term "Executive time" to get around Trump being further scrutinized. It is foolish to believe Trump is doing nothing for 21 hours a day when there are huge things that have been accomplished in the first 21 months of his administration.
Trump OWNS his golf courses. He can use HIS properties as he sees fit.
And he is using them to funnel money into his pockets. Literally millions of dollars.
What? Did you think he was golfing there at no cost to the taxpayers?
Just to start with, everywhere the President goes, he has Secret Service protection. It is a federal crime for a Secret Service agent to accept gifts, freebies, or discounts in the course of their duties. So each and every person on the President’s protection detail is paying full price for rooms and meals at that luxury resort. And the room rates at Mar-a-Lago doubled during the campaign. The Secret Service pays the tab on those expensive rooms, which means the federal government and the taxpayers are paying a lot of money into Donald Trump’s pocket every time he takes a day off.
Additionally the secret service pays to rent the elevator while he is there, and pays to rent golf carts for themselves while there. Trump is raking in the dough this way.
