"They're not working": Trump accuses federal workings of slacking after he spent the day golfing

Do we expect a president who has golfed on the tax payers dime 9 times in this last month to comment about how others are doing their jobs? No, the fat ass liar should shut his ugly pie hole.

Yes, we do. You expected us to welcome Brandon's month long "vacations" as they reset his brain for the next big speech. Hypocrisy is pretending that he "never" works when he takes some time to golf.

According to you the 333 golf outings under Obama mean he never worked. I submit that is absurd, they both work hard and get to take some time off. Now, If Trump were upset that they were not working during their time off, and he was unreachable and didn't even talk about work while golfing then you might have something to call "hypocritical"... but this, "He was golfing, so he can't say they were slacking" is just dumbassery.

Did obama require the little people to report back what they accomplished in the last week or be fired?

No, Obama just fired people without cause and replaced them with people he wanted in those places. Like most Presidents do. Though, to be fair Obama wasn't trying to rid the government of waste and abuse, nor did most of the government employees "work from home" at that time.

It is interesting how you conflate these things.

He handled Colombia refusing to take their people back while he was playing golf.

Donald Trump made Colombia take U-turn on deportation flights while golfing​

Yeah, but you better whisper that, they don't believe that folks can do meaningful things if they are near grass and small white balls.

They've made it a word, but really, "golfing" is no more of a word than tennising or pooling are words.

People play tennis or play pool.... or play golf..

Bowling is a real wood, however. People don't play bowl.

That said, the pigfucking orangutan is a lazy mutant troglodyte as well as being inherently malignant.
but the less he tries to do, the better.

He's certainly prolific at insulting his betters, however.

This is because "to golf" is an actual verb, while "to tennis" is not. You play a game... So you can play golf, or you can golf, both are correct because golf is a verb when used as a verb and a noun when used as a noun. Tennis is only a noun.

So no mandatory check ins with our government overloads who if they find you didn't accomplish enough in their opinion you are out of a job. Cute! You better hope they don't come for you next.

Mandatory check-ins with bosses are a thing most of us have had to do, and as a project manager I have to do constantly. You probably don't have to because the time clock and your business tend to keep you busy enough and you can't do healthcare from home. You should insist that as someone that works in healthcare you don't "need" to go into the office or justify your paycheck. See how far it gets you.

Weekly check ins where if you boss doesn't like what you completed they fired you for it? LOL bullshit
Our numbers are great right now due to ignorant magats running around. Everything I do is documented and can be seen at any time by my employer. This is hilarious and I love some of the emails people are posting in response.

Dude I have to get what folks have done in daily standup meetings, and what they are working on today, I ask if there is anything I can do to remove barriers from them getting their work done and justify projects to stakeholders constantly. Yes, I have to justify what I do on a near constant basis. I am worth every penny of what they pay me though.

Now, what I would do if I were a government worker is go to grok.com and feed it my job description and tell it what I did and ask it to write an email.. Use his own AI to generate the thing, copy/paste edit for corrections and boom. less than 10 minutes and I get to keep my job...

It's an actual verb now, but when the game arrived here from the UK circa 1900,
no sophisticated person would ever use the expression "golfing."
That was only used by people who would never have the opportunity to play or participate in private club discourse.

Language evolves, I admit, but I've always been inclined to resist that kind of change.

For example, I will never use the words they and their in a singular context
because doing that sounds and looks so trashy to me.

I'd be good with that. In government savings I prefer chaos to status quo, if we continue as we have been we do not have much longer... Everyone should fear the day that the rest of the world decides to stop using the US Dollar as the world trade currency... It is the only thing that makes it so the debt load doesn't crush us today (as in right now).

What they've cut isn't even statistically - well, anything.

The interest on the debt far overshadows any savings.

Not that I'm opposed to cutting. But let's admit it's performative.
