Trump Faces Backlash for Golfing During Military Ceremony and Economic Turmoil

The president skipped a dignified transfer ceremony for fallen service members to attend a LIV Golf tournament, reigniting criticism over his golfing habits and priorities.

Donald Trump skipped a solemn dignified transfer ceremony for four U.S. service members at Dover Air Force Base to participate in a LIV Golf tournament at his Doral property.
The president has spent 19 of the first 74 days of his second term golfing, accounting for 25% of this period, according to TrumpGolfTrack.com.
Media outlets, including CNN, highlighted Trump’s past criticisms of Barack Obama’s golfing, juxtaposing them with his current extensive time on the golf course.
The controversy has been compounded by significant economic challenges, including market declines linked to Trump’s trade policies, raising questions about his leadership priorities.
An anonymous White House official reportedly described Trump as indifferent to negative media coverage and economic issues, as he continues to focus on personal leisure activities.
