So they each played golf the length of time after getting significant things accomplished?

At the end of 3 weeks in office, Trump will be taking his second trip to Florida. He is also tentatively heading there the following weekend, if he deems it necessary to return to DC at all.
We haven't even ventured into vacations yet.

So what?
He's not on salary, so it's not like he's stealing work time from us.

You idiot.
This golf outing is a working trip with the Japanese prime minister, not solely for Trump's own leisure.

I'm confused... do you not believe it happened or what?
"On his first vacation as president to his Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, Florida, Trump spent about eight hours at the Trump International Golf Club last Saturday and Sunday. And he will be taking his clubs out again for more golfing this weekend, as he is scheduled to play with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe."
That'd be pretty ballsy to just pull that out of thin air.

It's not a vacation to visit your home. If it is then Zach takes a vacation 365 days a year.

This is work dumbasses. If Obama knew how to make deals then his golfing wouldn't have been a problem. Obama was playing with Justin Timberlake and Tiger Woods and shite. Trump is working deals on the course with world leaders.
It's weird that I know this. But trump played golf with Tiger Woods on Christmas Eve FWIW
I don't consider playing golf to be taking a break when you are playing with another world leader though. That's a textbook relationship builder/dealmaking strategy

One of the things I'm enjoying about Trump is he is so out in the open with leveraging the presidency for his own business to benefit. All the other politicians doing it in private. And of course its completely okay with all the Trumpkin's!

Really depends on who you're playing with. Lots of time between shots to talk business… unless you're playing with people who have no business.

He's certainly told more lies. I mean offered alternative facts

For the record, I don't care about the golfing part. Everyone is entitled to leisure activities. I just think that taking air Force 1 every week for personal reasons is a bit too much.

Wrong! Let me give you a little Walter Williams logic. Ownership is determined by a simple test: 'Can you sell it?"
I can sell my dog therefore I own my dog.
I cannot sell my children therefore I do not own them.
Trump cannot sell the White House, therefore it is not HIS home.
He can sell his house in Fla, therefore it IS his home.
