Except plotting to overthrow the next election.
Still, Trump has somehow managed to surpass him.

Not working though. Just watching news shows about himself and tweeting. See how I did that. If you can make up BS, I can make up BS. Did you actually add up HOURS one president worked over another? How would you even get access to that info. Honestly, the stuff you people pull out of your backsides.

Actually, anyone that attacked Obama for golfing (Trump and his supporters) that defends Trump now is being hypocritical, especially since Trump golfs so much more.

Use an advanced search. You can do the work yourself.

LOL. He hardly sleeps because he's up all night tweeting insults at movie stars and news channels.

Good grief.

His own staff admits to this.

I do agree that compared to Obama, Trump blows.

Good for him; he is showing leadership. It is time to build herd immunity. There are no guarantees in life, death is part of the cycle of life. This whole thing is ridiculous, some people will die, but those who die likley have already lived their life or have an underlying health issue that already diminished their quality of life or genetics that likely should be removed from the gene pool. We will be a stronger nation after a cleansing. If I am taken, so be it. Go out golf, french kiss a stranger, whatever. It is time to spike the number of cases, weed out the weak, and strengthen the herd.

This whole thing has been political football. A shame we shred the greatest economy in this nation's history over the Fauci fairy tales.

Simple reality "we" already reproduced and placed 4 healthy, well adjusted young adults into society. (ages 19-25), all four have graduated from college and are well compensated professionals doing relatively meaningful work. I am in my mid 50s and though I do fairly important work yet, the truth is, I am very expendable. I have served my purpose to society and culture, my life now is of little consequence. Although I employ many people, the truth is those businesses will continue to employ people even after my death. And while I am healthy now, at some point the odds are I will shift from being neutral or a net positive to a detriment to society as I age. So once again there is no loss in my departure, premature or not. People really need to get over their importance. When you die almost everything that mattered to you is no longer of importance to anyone, all the nuances that make you, you are gone. The chemicals that make up your body are released to be recycled into some other form, but you are gone and few of us mattered at all, and few have led a life worth preserving, myself included.

This virus takes out the weak, the old, the decrepit with minimal risk to the healthy. Building herd immunity is the key and this asinine lockdown is preventing that. Coronavrius is a catch all for a family of related virus, none of which mankind has never developed a vaccine for despite great efforts (SARs, MERs) so while we may one day get a vaccine we should also be executing contingent paths, one of which is herd immunity.

At least if he’s golfing he’s not tweeting.

Trump is celebrating Memorial Day week end by golfing. Why should it be any different than the coasting that he's been doing for the last 3.5 years.


God forbid he should spend time trying to understand what his advisors are telling him.
