As the deeply unpopular U.S. war against Iran heats up, claiming the lives of at least two U.S. service members on Friday, President Donald Trump was spotted at one of his golf clubs on Saturday, sparking outrage among critics.
Trump was spotted at the Trump National Golf Club in New Jersey on Saturday, per reporting from The Daily Beast, and the White House has repeatedly delayed its press pool call for reporters, “suggesting damage control behind the scenes.”
At the same time, the United States ramped up its attacks on Iran, with U.S. Central Command announcing a new wave of strikes Saturday evening it said were designed to “punish Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps forces who launched attacks against American service members in Jordan last night.”
For Trump to be spending Saturday at his luxury golf club left several onlookers enraged.
“Trump at his golf club as soldiers die in his zero IQ war that he’s already lost,” wrote progressive commentator Kyle Kulinski in a social media post on X to his nearly 560,000 followers.
The progressive media organization MeidasTouch criticized Trump for “enjoying the amenities of his Bedminster golf club” while “our troops get killed overseas,” and liberal commentator and influencer Brian Krassenstein didn’t mince words with a particularly scathing condemnation of the president.
“Two Americans are dead. Trump is at his Bedminster golf club mingling with wealthy customers,” Krassenstein wrote in a social media post on X to his nearly 1 million followers. “This comes after repeated claims that Iran’s military had been ‘destroyed’ – yet U.S. forces are still being targeted by ballistic missiles and drones. Americans deserve answers.”
