Trump claims to be 'working almost all the time', while reviewing a comedy TV show during vacation

President Donald Trump on Saturday offered his latest television criticism while on vacation at one of his golf courses. The television-critic-in-chief claimed to be working “almost all the time” in the same Twitter thread.

“Got to see, by accident, wacko comedian Bill Maher’s show – So many lies. He said patients in El Paso hospital didn’t want to meet with me. Wrong! Had really great meetings with numerous patients,” Trump claimed (despite the fact the hospital said otherwise).

“Bill Maher said I was on vacation. Wrong!” he argued.
“Long planned fix up of W.H.,
stay here (Trump National Golf Club Bedminster, NJ) rather than cause big disruption by going to Trump Tower, Manhattan.” (no golf course in Trump Tower)

“Working almost all of the time, including evenings. Don’t have to be in W.H. to do that,” he said,
despite having no public events on his schedule.

Uh, yeah...he might have met with patients in El Paso, just not THE patients he was there to "console".

Or did tRump dress that way to appease them? I know it's older, but that's the uniform.
