Hypocrite-In-Chief Trump Plays 1st Round Of Golf Nearly 3 Months Before Obama
President Donald Trump, who frequently criticized his predecessor for playing too much golf, hit the links for the first time as commander in chief on Saturday — nearly three months before Barack Obama played his first round in 2009.
Mark Knoller, a White House correspondent for CBS News, reports (above) that Obama didn't play his first round of golf as president until April 26, 2009. Trump, meanwhile, teed off on Saturday morning — 15 days into his presidency — at his Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach.
At a campaign rally in December 2015, Trump slammed Obama for having "played more golf than Tiger Woods."
“It was reported today (Obama) played 250 rounds of golf and he’s going to be in Hawaii, I think did they say for three weeks?” Trump said. “Two hundred and fifty rounds, that’s more than a guy who plays in the PGA Tour plays. He played more golf last year than Tiger Woods. We don’t have time for this. We have to work. ... I don’t have time for that. I love golf, I think it’s one of the greats, but I don’t have time.”
