Trump leaves Washington, but the tweets go on

-

President Trump will spend 17 days at Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, N.J.

Worry not, Trump supporters, the president will still issue daily tweets telling you what to cheer him on for or who to rail against on his behalf. Tracy Nickerson

Remember when President Obama played golf and it was almost an impeachabl­e offense? Now, however, a man who golfs a lot more, advertisin­g his own properties in the process, well ... that’s just perfectly fine! Anthony Culotta

Which is more expensive, booking entire floors at luxury hotels in Hawaii and Spain, or Trump staying at one of his own properties in New Jersey? Do the math. Bill Wilson

Well, Trump earned it, what with all those “tremendous deals” he has made already. John Richard Sullivan

Trump is taking his family away from the monsters in the Washington swamp. John James

Trump is certainly entitled to a vacation, we all are. But hasn’t he had a vacation pretty much every weekend since inaugurati­on? Isn’t this the president who told members of Congress they couldn’t leave for recess until something is done on health care? Isn’t this the president who claimed he’d be too busy for golf? Isn’t this the president who derided Obama for taking a vacation? Andrew Kleinwaks

He’ll just do the same things on vacation that he does while he’s “working”: tweet immature rants, insult and threaten people, self-adulate, eat junk food, and play golf. Dave Yang

The White House is being remodeled and will be a mess for several weeks. Trump will be conducting the same business he would be doing at the White House. He will just be doing it at his place in New Jersey instead of in Washington. Instead of reporting this correctly, the liberal news media say Trump is taking a long vacation. Randall D. Rigsby
