Trump is averaging 156.69% of Obama's game time, a little more than 1 and a half times as often.

There is of course the detail that trying to make a case based on comparing a single 56-day sample to a 2922-day average is pretty desperate.

The point I attempted to make prior to the thread going to a debate about math and sampling size, was...

Why the fuck did the conservatives raise so much hell about the time Obama spent on the golf course, but when Trump is on the course, he is 'entitled to a bit of privacy?'

In other words, both men took the same pass time with totally different judgements being made.

I.E. the double standard.

Personally, I would have preferred Obama spending less time on the course and more time doing, or at least attempting to do what he said he wanted to.

As far as governing style, both Obama and Trump seem to have the same "Give congress a general idea of what I want and HOPE they give me exactly what I want without me offering a single pertinent detail."

It really is not a double standard because with any president there is bitching and whinging about the president doing anything other than sitting in the Oval Office. It is a standard complaint raised.
