Trump Defends Golfing: I'll Be Playing 'Quickly' With Tiger Woods

2017-11-24 25

President Trump tweeted on Friday that he'll be "quickly" playing golf with Tiger Woods.

President Trump on Black Friday morning tweeted out his plans for the day, and though they don't include hitting the malls, he will be hitting the links.
Trump revealed that after he and Turkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdogan discuss Middle East peace, he'll "be heading over to Trump National Golf Club, Jupiter, to play golf (quickly) with Tiger Woods and Dustin Johnson."
"Then back to Mar-a-Lago for talks on bringing even more jobs and companies back to the USA!" Trump further noted.
The announcement of a golf game is rare, according to ABC News.
Trump, as well as his staffers, tend to favor ambiguity when it comes to the leader's visits to his clubs. 
They are often described as working trips, and appearances on the golf course have been explained as "strategic" meetings. 
Trump's tweets about what he does while at his properties include, "Working in Bedminster, N.J., as long planned construction is being done at the White House. This is not a vacation - meetings and calls!" and "will be having many meetings this weekend at The Southern White House. Big 5:00 P.M. speech in Melbourne, Florida. A lot to talk about!"
