President Trump defends his regular golf outings as exercise; renews his spat with London Mayor Sadiq Khan.

Trump, who sent Vice President Mike Pence to the country in his stead, responded Tuesday morning, shortly after Fox Business Network"The incompetent Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, was bothered that I played a very fast round of golf yesterday. Many Pols exercise for hours, or travel for weeks. Me, I run through one of my courses .

It's not clear if he's golfed on each day of those trips, because the White House generally declines to acknowledge if the president has golfed or not.of the president's golf outings — which include travel and security costs — put the tab to taxpayers at more than $100 million as of May. "Because I'm going to be working for you, I'm not going to have time to play golf. Believe me," Trump told a Virginia crowd in August 2016.

GOLF IS NOT EXCERSIZE! It's an absolutely useless game that's boring as hell! I am sick & tired of hearing about him golfing! Stop covering it, I'm bored by it all, (yawn!).

Isn’t this the same guy who used to badmouth President Obama about going golfing?

LAUGHABLE and TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE

The entire southeast of the country is in truly mortal danger and 45 goes and play golf?!?!?!?

Somebody give him a jump rope.

I hope all you tax payers enjoy seeing your taxes going to TRUMPS golf courses. His piggy bank which is our taxes is putting shit loads of money in tRUMP pockets. The only thing he's making great again is his bank account!

If tRUMP would get his huge fat ass out of the golf cart and walk the course, maybe then he could call it exercise. But who I'm trying to kid, we all know that ain't going to happen.

Thais confirm how hypocritical is this president. It is nothing new. We knew that from the beginning. The only problem is that GOP are so blind that doesn’t recognize it.

Trumps golf outings for “exercise” so far has cost taxpayers over $105 MILLION SO FAR! He has a golf simulator installed in the White House that can provide the same “exercise” so WHAT THE FUCK

He gets enough exercise with his mouth with out the golf. He hates his job

Donald J Trump UR mouth is UR ennemy Ur actions R equally atrocious U'd do better if U had a Gym at YR work place as long as you stay silent & don't start working your mouth off to UR trainer It would B less costly 4 American Citizens U'd cut travel expenses & extra Protection

People don’t get that being president means inviting other world leaders over for a friendly game of golf.

Ditch the Golf Cart. Walk the course and tell the truth.

Really um no loser

That's why POTUS has a fat ass but a pea sized brain. He's wasting tax dollars to do it. How many hundreds of millions has he spent on golf & vacays? How huge is the deficit? How much $$ did he misappropriate from FEMA? His undivested hotels making $$ off govt involved visitors.

Exercise? I’ve got bad news...

viagra and gulf are not categorized as exercise

It’s funny how the corrupt media gave Obama a free pass for his golf outings. Our media really sucks,

When it comes to golfing in the face of crisis no President compares to Obama. His obsession with Leisure FUN TIMES took precedence over all Things America. There was no crisis,no threat to national security,NOTHING that stopped Him from Golfing. Trump's dedicated to America 1st!

Good for him !!!!

A treadmill would cost taxpayers a lot less. AND, he could spend more time acting like he was working.

Exercise for you but not for Obama🤔

So now the president can't have a hobby?

'When you ride in a cart, it ISN'T exercise. It's laziness.' -- Ed Verplanke, Lifetime Member PGA

Leisurely loser tRump, gulfing(?) -more like 'goofing-off' on our dime - time & time again. And mistakenly dismissing driving golf-carts as exercise. FailureFooltRump LosertRump tRumpWastingTaxDollars TrumpDontCare LiarInChief

The media didn’t negatively report when Obama played golf, basketball or vacationed in Hawaii. Why portray offense for a couple games of golf. Reporters don’t work the long hours as President Trump

How many hours/day should tRUMPpp spend playing golf ⛳️ ? 0, 8, 12, 24.

Looks like realDonaldTrump plays golf as bad as he tries to be potus. On golf course he’s always in the weeds. As potus he’s always off course. In both roles, he cheats. Get this IQ-challenged crook out of our government.

It’s not working. Not fit or athletic.

Of course realdonaldtrump does.

I'd compare it to Obama's golf outings, but you can hardly call what Barry committed on the course 'golf'.

Making a point od destroying Obama's legacy was the most reckless thing he has done.

realDonaldTrump is doing such an excellent job I don’t mind if he takes a weekend off here n thereLook at what these stupid congress women are doing daily We’re paying them to talk shit about our President Especially AOC Ilhan obviously their mothers didn’t teach them respect!

Stupid

Hmmmmm wasn't it realDonaldTrump Pres. Mc Fatass bitched and complained about Obama golfing?! How much money has been funneled into his resorts compared to Obama's use of Camp David and trips to Hawaii?

If exercise, why the buggy?

Go to a golf range! It’s not exercise in the walking - since we all know you don’t walk the course!

realDonaldTrump try walking the course if you want exercise. What a loser. RacistInChief

Oh that's really a good one.

realDonaldTrump rides a cart. He gets more exercise writing hush money checks

Yes, while the East Coast faces the worst storm in recoded history. Isn’t this something like “let them at cake?” Or how about Nero playing the violin while Rome burned?

He renews his spat? More like Khan threw the 1st punch. Trump's just defending himself.

Is MSNBC disputing golf as exercise?

knockout

Lol what a lazy bum

A grimace from the rough, I wonder how far under par he claimed to be that day?

Cant we just have one day where.... yeah, i know

Nice lawn. Is that a Trump golf court ?

The Orange Blimp Thinks golf will get him cardio. Wow.

Exercise? Someone should tell him it’s not working

If lightning struck him what would people think?

realDonaldTrump is a nut job

Does he walk the 18 holes, or does he ride a cart? No exercise if he's riding. AgainALiar

Yep great shape. Not! If you call 2 boobs and a belly full of hambugliars Great 🤔the little elf running around his club spending large sums of money While news reports he is cutting many Funds for his wall. You see he puts his ego before his country That's why you vote 🧢🇺🇸2020

Yeah, riding a cart from one hole to another, not great exercise

He rides around in the damn golf cart. How can that be exercise?

Did I read that correctly? Golf as exercise? Yeah he looks like he exercises as much as he golfs.🤣😆😂

A gym membership would be much cheaper than the 3 million per golf game.

realDonaldTrump has a point. Climbing in and out of a golf cart is quite a rigorous work out

Pfft!!

Jihadist leader of Londonstan argues with Christian leader of the free world. And the press is hating on his golfing too. Got it

So?...

What did fatso say? He’d have to play golf 24/7 for 1 year and still be FAT!!!!!!!!

As he packs on the pounds?

Hahahaha. From the looks of you your almost 300 rounds of golf at taxpayers expense isn’t helping your obesity. devinscow

Well instead of driving a golf cart, try walking that 239 lbs all over the course and only eat 1 Big Mac instead of 3 or 4 and go with a small fry instead of a double large..that should help.

If he was really doing it for the exercise then he would leave the golf cart at the club house and walk. He couldn't even make it to the flag on the 1st hole if he had to walk. 45 has probably golfed more in the 2 1/2 years of being in office than Obama golfed in his 8 years.

I mean crap, look the guy. OBVIOUSLY, no one could argue that the exercise is working.

If this is considered exercise you should weigh 135lbs by now realDonaldTrump

Your exercise is not working

Where is the lightening when you need it?

he's winning

He’s the worst advert for golf as a form of exercise that I can imagine 🤣🤣🤣 others, however, could make me a groupie 🤔

Exercise? This guy uses a golf cart to go anywhere. He even used a golf cart during the G-7 Meeting in Taormina, Sicily (2017). I should note that all other attendees walked. Exercise? Right!😬

Sure....(psst, Donnie, less cart more walking if you want this lie to hold up a little better).

does he own a fred flintstone cart?

realDonaldTrump If you condider golf exercise I think you better take up jogging! It ain’t working Einstein!!!

Exercise? Hahahahahaha hahahaha! Sorry...hahahahahaha!

Plz u r not a man of HONOR for the people anyweres it's all about you

What, does he consider getting in and out of a cart leg lifts? He’s so lazy he drives on the greens.

ITS JUST A MAYOR OF A CITY...A NOBODY IF YOU ASK ME. I MEAN REALLY, LONDON? PSST

Don, you will be able to lift weight everyday in prison.

It's not exercise when you use a golf cart thunder thighs.

Well that routine isn’t working. 236 my ass

Almost every one has a hobby what’s yours

😂 Exercise 🤣 He rides a cart!!!

Ok. But why then did he promise not to?

I gold plenty. When you’re in a cart, it’s not exercise.

Trump takes a golf cart..not really exercise.

Obviously it’s working.

Sure. Cause he looks so fit and trim.🤦🏻‍♀️

SENDTRUMPTHEHOSPITALBILLS SENDTRUMPTHEFUNERNALBILLS HE S RICH HE SAID IT AT HIS RALLIES SENDCRIMINALTRUMPALLTHEBILLS OF THE VICTIMS!!!

Why is Twitter not suspending Trump account, tweets are racist, full of lies and creating fake news. Who cares if this moron is the potus?

If that is the you better be playing a hell of lot more golf, you are in horrific shape.

Exercise you say Using those elbows to push away the 'big mac's' would work best ...

His golf outings put hundreds of thousands of taxpayers dollars in his own pockets. He charges taxpayers for the secret service to stay at his luxury resorts. UNPRECEDENTED CORRUPTION

Exercise? You should be weighing a lot less by now!! SF!

Exercise? If that was exercise he would be thin.

So y'all are tell me the WH doesn't have a gym with a treadmill he can walk on 😒

lastly, if he only plays golf for exercise i'm sure there are PLENTY of good courses around the country, in Florida and in the DC area where he could 'get exercise' so why not play at those courses & let them get paid for golf carts etc?

ImpeachTrumpNow

Fairly large ass for an exercise guy

Poor baby Donny tRump? Part of the Obama/Hillary plot was to show what a fake tR is by actually getting Donnie criticize Obama for playing golf. They KNEW tR would promise to work even more than the schedule Obama kept. Now fake media reports tR golf as another lie. Poor tRump!

Obama vactioned and golfed during and after Mississippi under water

Kennedy played touch football Clinton jogged Bush bicycled Obama shot baskets... Your a new agency... Go find news!

HA HA HA HA HA HA HAHAHAHAHA

Let's also not forget the free publicity the club gets form the press covering him going there. As far as 'exercise' goes, he doesn't even walk the course! he takes golf carts all the time! he gets 1 hell of a work out walking the short distance to his ball over & over again eh?

BJP Rajini

I'm proud of Mayor Sadiq Khan. He's absolutely right to call Donald Trump out for going golfing while millions of American citizens are worrying about what to do during a terrifying hurricane. Donald Trump doesn't give a damn about ordinary Americans.

But, Sir, the carts....the carts, Sir.

SteelBackbone SenTedCruz realDonaldTrump senatemajldr FoxNews seanhannity

Well if it is exercise why is he still so fat he has been golfing more then he has been in oval office what a bum

Sure. If walking.

He needs a different type of exercise, that aint working on his body, only his bottom line.

He can take walks around the white house gardens, I'm sure there's a work out room in the WH. What he wants is the $$$ that goes with him going to his courses form golf cart rentals for the secret Service etc flowing into his pockets.

Can we insist all future and existing Presidents where pedometers and the daily steps can be tracked on line? Kind of like tracking Santa?

realDonaldTrump thinks it is just some surereal soap drama, do you really gives two pennies for the suffering and turmoil he is brought the world to. Tariffs war, arms race, shooting at home, tension in far east, middle East, south america. And there is BorisJohnson a clown

Why do all of his golf courses look like shit?

realDonaldTrump You’ll concoct any lie you can think of to justify your BS. If you wanted exercise, you’d walk the entire round. But, we know that would probably kill, not to mention taking 6 hour to finish.

Not exercise because if he was exercising he wouldn't have gained all the weight eating fast food as he does in the White House. Sad but our President is obese.

But Swift would like to clear some things up about the song, mainly that you really shouldn’t even try to take the trip she maps out in a day.
