What happened
Trump visited golf clubs on 92 days in his first year and on 237 of the first 1,022 days of his first term — roughly a quarter of his presidency. By 2020 he had golfed more than Obama had at the same point, while claiming the opposite. He kept the habit in his second term, spending 106 of his first 473 days back in office at golf courses.
