Donald Trump visited a golf course for the 12th time in his nine-week presidency over the weekend, but Fox News saw events differently:
News Alert: @POTUS spending weekend working at the White House. pic.twitter.com/kAtZVQE2Mr
— Fox News (@FoxNews) March 26, 2017
Needless to say, folks on Twitter thought the network missed the cut on this one.
Here’s some of the reaction:
WHOA. This is a first for a U.S. President, right? https://t.co/TFdA6fdfnz

@FoxNews wow he only golfed for some of the weekend instead of all weekend gee whiz

@pattonoswalt This is hilarious, because there are multiple reports thats not the case. https://t.co/JxulDuBqel

So much for Fox/Pravda spin that he spent the weekend "working." Honestly, I'm not sure what "work" is for Trump. Tweeting? https://t.co/21CxbzE9gC

@FoxNews @POTUS Then why was he at his golf course in Virginia with cleats and golf gloves yet again? #FakeNewsAlert pic.twitter.com/IUIHxx5sUH

I find it simultaneously amusing, pathetic and telling that trump working is breaking news.And like everything else from Fox, it's a lie. https://t.co/OuUWJd5UGH

Check that. He went to his VA golf course to not only play golf, but to watch it on TV. What President has time to do that? @POTUS @FoxNews

@FoxNews @POTUS the fact that this is as News Alert now that Trump is POTUS is hilarious. 😂😂😂😂

1) Even if this were true, why would it be news?
— Chuds MacKenzie (@ChudsMacKenzie) March 26, 2017
2) Not even true. https://t.co/6oHfunGbMj https://t.co/zvOYcyWcmG
@FoxNews You know it's trouble when we need a report that our President will be working during this weekend. #DoYourJob

@FoxNews @POTUS Golfing away from the White House is actually the opposite of 'Spending the weekend working at the White House.
