President Donald Trump tweeted Friday morning that he will be working from his golf club in New Jersey instead of New York City this weekend.

“Rather than causing a big disruption in N.Y.C., I will be working out of my home in Bedminster, N.J. this weekend. Also saves country money!,” Trump tweeted.


The president met with Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull Thursday at Manhattan’s Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum. The event marks the 75th anniversary of the Battle of Coral Sea, when American and Australian forces were victorious against Japan.

Trump is currently at Trump National Golf Course in Bedminster, which is about an hour from New York City.

Mar-a-Lago, Trump’s go-to vacation spot, typically closes for the season after Mother's Day in mid-May. Trump has been criticized for traveling away from Washington at a higher rate than his predecessors at taxpayer expense.
