Donald Trump was skewered by critics for spending his Saturday golfing while the federal government was shut down.
As the U.S. completed its fourth day of the 2025 federal shutdown, the president was golfing in Virginia. The news spread like wildfire on social media, with critics from all over weighing in.
HuffPost reporter S.V. Dáte said, "It is the fourth day of the government shutdown but DO NOT WORRY! It is not adversely affecting the president."
"He is on the golf course, the 73rd time in this second term," he added.
MAGA satire account Cuckturd chimed in, "Trump closed down all National Parks, but approved continued funding for his golf expenses. Recreation for me, but not for the peasants that pay the bills."
Former MSNBC personality Keith Olbermann also added, "Again: Trump hasn't been SEEN or HEARD live, in real time, since Tuesday. Supposedly golfing today. Press pool literally prevented from seeing him."
Ex-prosecutor Ron Filipkowski said, "Our dementia-addled President In Name Only hacks it up on the golf course again this weekend while rage-boy Gestapo Miller seethes and plots the 4th Reich."
PatriotTakes, which says it's "dedicated research monitoring and exposing right-wing extremism and other threats to democracy," even posted a video of the golf excursion.
"Video of Trump golfing at his Virginia golf club today," according to the group. "This is what he was doing instead of working to keep the government open."
