Trump slams WFH staff for ‘golfing’ despite frequently playing himself
Donald Trump hit out a federal workers working from home for “golfing”, despite spending nearly a third of his presidency playing golf.
Trump said all federal workers will be forced to return to the office as he addressed crowds at the FII Institute summit on Wednesday (19 February).
Those who work from home are, “not working, they’re playing tennis, they’re playing golf. Or they have other jobs,” he told the crowd at a Saudi-backed conference in Miami.
Meanwhile the US president has reportedly spent almost $11 million of taxpayer money funding his golfing hobby since returning to office.

Trump is, and has always been, a two-faced liar. What a doofus
INDEPENDANT IS A PRO FISTER ORGANIZATION IS THIS SO MAN
📌
TRUMP doesn't use taxpayersmoney to play golf. He has his own 💯
MAGA!!!
Nice spin. Federal workers don’t show up for 3 years to the office and collect checks as opposed to him playing 9 holes once a week. Biden went 6 months without a press meeting.
😂😂😂😅
Joe spent over 40% of his presidency vegetating on a Delaware beach when he wasn't busy napping
Trump a lazy man
He’s the president and works more than anyone!!
BS. Now print how many days Joey didn't work. Typical rag-mag reporting
If a federal employee were to end wars and open industrial economies of foreign nations — while on the golf course — President Trump might update that policy. Trump likes winners.
The real problem is Trump is always working it was so cold people he's complaining about are not always working but they are stealing money.
Is that all you got!? 😂😂😂
I just scrolled thru years of your videos. Not once did you throw down on Sleepy Joe tanning at the beach nearly every day for 4 years.
Trump works 16hr days. If he wants to golf for a few hours a week, so be it.
WFH employees are not working! I've seen it in the companies I worked for that allowed WFH. People were calling in from the beach!! Half their work is delayed.
Get your butts back in the office! And quit complaining, do your jobs or get fired.
Lazy!
