classyuptop: The libtards on twitter are bitching about Trump not doing enough in response to North Korea’s ballistic missile test. You know damn well that the second he takes any action they’ll start having conniption fits while shrieking about impeachment. Because you know full well that if Obama was golfing when NK launched a missile the GOP would be flipping their shit



Trump was hosting the Japanese prime minister. Shinzo Abe is a well known golf fanatic and has stated that he had a hard time forming a personal connection with Obama. It makes perfect sense that Trump would invite him to play a round of golf to try to establish a bond. It’s a form of diplomacy.

If Trump makes a habit of golfing almost every weekend, then I’ll understand criticizing him. The GOP went after Obama because he took over 300 golf vacations throughout his presidency. Even if he took 1 vacation a month, that still equates to 96 vacations over 8 years. Instead he had an average of over 3 vacations per month.

Also, let’s compare the typical work schedule of each president:

Obama: approximately 13 hours per day (liberal estimate)

Trump: approximately 18 hours per day (conservative estimate)

With that in mind, if Trump plays a 4 hour round of golf on a given day, he’ll still have worked more hours than Obama did in a day.
