CNN panel destroys 'disrespectful' Trump for tweeting from golf course during McCain memorial

Renowned presidential historian Douglas Brinkley scolded President Donald Trump for tweeting during the funeral for fallen Sen. John McCain (R-AZ)

"While we watched this moving memorial service, the president was at his golf club outside of Washington, D.C. but he was also tweeting," CNN's Wolf Blitzer reported Saturday. "Tweeting about the absence of Canada in NAFTA and other issues including the Mueller probe."

"Give us an historic perspective," Blitzer asked.

"I thought that was disrespectful of President Trump to be tweeting during the memorial service," Dr. Brinkley replied.

"I might be old-fashioned in that regard, but I think he should have taken a time-out with it," he added.

Trump has tweeted 4,575 times while serving as President of the United States of America.

Saturday was his 38th day at Trump National Potomac Falls golf course while in office and his 152nd day at a golf course during his 590 days in office.

Former President Barack Obama, George W. Bush, and Bill Clinton were invited attend Sen. McCain’s memorial service. The current president was not invited.
