Despite previously telling reporters aboard Air Force One that he would be too busy to play, former U.S. President Donald Trump was spotted teeing off at his Doral golf club in Miami, according to HuffPost.
This latest golf outing adds to his long history of time spent on the green, with reports suggesting he played at least 289 rounds during his first term—an expensive hobby that has cost taxpayers around $150 million in travel and security expenses.
Interestingly, while taking swings, Trump reportedly held discussions with House Republicans about policies on deportation expansion and tariff warnings. His ability to mix business with golf has always been a point of debate, and this time is no different.
Photos of his recent game quickly spread online, stirring mixed reactions. Critics slammed him for hitting the course so early into his second term, questioning his priorities. Meanwhile, his supporters defended the outing, arguing that Trump frequently conducts important business while golfing.
Adding to the buzz, investor Kevin O’Leary recently claimed the 78-year-old shot an astonishing 68 in a previous game—a score many found hard to believe. Whether for policy talks or perfecting his putt, Trump’s time on the course continues to keep people talking.
