Trump Saves Nation Millions By Making 23rd Trip To One Of His Golf Resorts Since Becoming President

The Hill reports:

President Trump on Friday said he is staying at his golf club in New Jersey over the weekend because he wants to avoid causing a major disruption in New York City and save the country money. “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.

Trump has no major events planned, though he needs to sign the government funding bill passed by both the House and Senate before midnight Friday night to avoid a shutdown. The trip is Trump’s 23rd since becoming president to one of his golf clubs, according to CBS News.

Big win in the House – very exciting! But when everything comes together with the inclusion of Phase 2, we will have truly great healthcare!
