Trump spotted at golf course with Tiger Woods

Could you clarify that? Individual meetings, or does this include meetings where there were several or dozens attending at a time? If it's the latter, sounds like lying-by-omission. It certainly would not be "work-a-holic"-like. It would also be on par with pretty much every other President who travels and attends meetings of leaders. If it's the former, a citation would be helpful because it doesn't sound legit.

He's met with dozens one on one.

He spearheaded and led the meeting of 50 Arab, Muslim Majority Nations that reached an agreement to oppose Fundamentalist Islamic Terror.

He's attended the NATO meetings and a meeting of the UN.

Actually, by that standard, he's well beyond 100.

So it was lying-by-omission. You acknowledge many of those leaders were all in one place at one time. Merely a head count of all leaders who attended, nothing more.

You actually put that forth as somehow being impressive?

No. Only showing that when you implied that the only thing he was doing was playing golf was "lying-by-omission".

I challenge you to please show me where I said, or even implied, that. Cite the specific post number. Better yet, quote the post and highlight the offending part.

In my very first post ion this thread... which you "liked", btw... I very clearly stated that he did not "only" play golf.
I saw a meme on Facebook yesterday showing Clinton, Bush II, and Obama dining with the troops on TG, and Trump playing golf. A picture is worth a thousand words, ya know, and it certainly looked damning. Some thoughts that entered my mind...

1) Those three Presidents were in office for 8 TGs, yet only one photo of each. Did they all dine with the troops at every TG?

2) Did some research and apparently Trump did do something earlier in the day. With the local Coast Guard, IIRC.

3) Trump did issue a weak video statement, though the others probably did, too.

4) While I do think he plays golf too much, I'm not upset over him doing so on TG.
Your lying-by-omission was throwing out a number of leaders he has supposedly met with but leaving out the fact that many (if not most) of them were merely at the same conference. You only added that when somebody had the audacity to challenge your "facts". Chances are he never spoke or interacted with many of them, they were just in the same place at the same time. Hardly a "meeting". My noting of you lying-by-omission included no mention of golf whatsoever. Not only are you twisting in the wind, you're doing it very poorly.

Sorry. You jumped into the middle of a discussion with another poster.

I wrongly assumed you were the poster to whom I responded before you interjected.

Mia Culpa.

He's POTUS. Of course he meets with lots of world leaders. Those numbers are meaningless unless you compare them to other presidents.

Now, Trump's golf numbers are easy to compare. By this time in their presidency:

Obama 24 Trump 35. Trump has played 50% more golf.

But Trump said he would be too busy to play ANY golf. And often criticized Obama for playing golf

Trump said:
Can you believe that,with all of the problems and difficulties facing the U.S., President Obama spent the day playing golf.Worse than Carter

Why can't you admit that Trump is a liar? He just told people he would be a hard working no golfing president becaue that's what they wanted to hear. The reality is he is not involved in crafting any legislation. He's totally absent. He spends way too much time having personal Twitter battles. And he's always hanging out at his golf courses.

When you defend this, you sound like a Trump cult member. The facts are the facts.

Right...

If a guy uses Twitter, it's absolutely impossible that he can be doing anything else.

Must have been someone else doing all that "President" crap for the last several months.

I don't think I took on position on whether or not Trump was lying.

I think most rational people knew Trump was lying to begin with.

No real golfer can lay down the clubs for any length of time.

Can you name any disasters that have come from his golfing? I can't. I can't remember any during Obama's golf outings either?
 
By Thanksgiving 2017, Trump has spent 1 (100) of every 3 days (307) at one of his properties.

Donald Trump said:
“I would rarely leave the White House because there’s so much work to be done. I would not be a president that takes time off.”

With Trump its do as I say, not as I do, the mantra of the hypocrite, if the shoe fits.



We pay for Obama's travel so he can fundraise millions so Democrats can run on lies. Then we pay for his golf.-D Trump Oct 13, 2014.

The Liar in Chief had an issue with the tax payers picking up Obamas tab, but has no problem sticking it to the American taxpayer for his numerous golf trips, kettle meet the new black.

Personally I could not give a rats ass, if Trump is on the golf course it means less attention being paid to screwing the American people over.

The point is he lied. He didn't have to promise he would be too busy to golf. No one asked him to say that.

It's very insulting to people when you promise you're going to do something when you're elected and then you totally forget that promise as soon as you're in office. This is a simple promise he made. He should keep his word. And it's not like he golfed a few times. He shatters presidential golfing records.

He won't keep his word because he is fundamentally dishonest. He's a conman. And he conned millions.

"it's easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled"

Are you having a hard time admitting you were fooled by Trump? As a country, we need to move on from Trump.

I never voted for the guy.

He can golf everyday for all I care.

Insulting? LOL

Exactly. I hear he's often on the crapper while he tweets. ;)

It helps me to achieve my goal if I think about something else in that position.

He's even older than I am, so, it sounds reasonable that he might.
 
Trump isn't racist. He just likes people who like him. If that happens to be racists because he says things racists like, so be it. If that happens to be cheaters because he cheats too and believes them over victims/women, so be it.

He also doesn't understand that all the people who like him are just using him, but whatever.
Do you psychobabble as a hobby or is it a full time occupation?
Does it include crystal balls and that sort of thing?

Obama may have visited, but they knew he and his party did not have their backs.

This is the party that voted to send troops to war and then stabbed them in the back... both instances for political expediency.
