Trump's Website Is Coded With a Broken Server Error Message That Blames Obama (techcrunch.com)
An anonymous reader quotes a report from TechCrunch: If you're a fan of Easter eggs hidden in source code, this is a pretty good one. Apparently, as Washington Post data reporter Christopher Ingraham observed on Twitter, some Trump administration and GOP websites have a portion of code with a joke that throws shade at Obama's golf habits, the irony nowhere to be found. We checked the source code and sure enough the line "Oops! Something went wrong. Unlike Obama, we are working to fix the problem and not on the golf course" appears on action.donaldjtrump.com sites, like the one hosting this surely statistically sound, Obama-obsessed "Inaugural Year Approval Poll," but not on donaldjtrump.com pages. As Ingraham pointed out, it's also present on some official GOP sites, including the GOP.com homepage. In both instances, the Obama dig is paired with a 404 error message that states "What do Hillary Clinton and this link have in common? They're both dead broke." To top it off, the code itself is apparently itself broken, swapping a single equal sign where there should be two. An honest mistake? Or perhaps the world was never meant to be gifted with these very good jokes at all?

Next someone'll tell me that Mexico is paying for a wall.
In 298 days, President Trump has made 1,628 false and misleading claims
No, he's exactly right about Donald Trump spending 1 in 4 days of his presidency on the golf course. As of the time I'm writing this, Donald Trump has been in office 343 days, 3 hours, and 59 minutes (not that I'm counting). During that time, he has golfed or visited a golf course (to eat in the club) 85 days. We know this because we have a comprehensive list of the presidential visits to golf courses. Notice that of the 85 golf course visits, all but one have been to Trump-branded properties, meaning he gets to wet his beak in some of the expense of that travel.

Now, 85 goes into 343 approximately 4.035294117647059 times, which means that Trump has been to a golf course a little over 1 in 4 days, which makes him the golfingest president since William Howard Taft, who coincidentally was also a big, fat SOB.
This is especially interesting considering Trump's many (23) promises during the campaign that "I'm going to be working for you, I'm not going to have time to go play golf,"

You are welcome on my lawn.
but then, you are not an infantile narcissist who is looking to sell the US to the highest bidder
Good thing Hilldog only got to sell Uranium to Russia and not the entire country. Now we just have to wait for the Rove style politics to fade away so people can come to reality and see that Trump is not involved with Russia, that the leftists are just gaslighting the country.
She never sold any Uranium to Russia, she was one of numerous people whose government agency approved a deal where Russian investors were allowed to buy a company that controls 20% of the US uranium manufacturing capacity. If Trump ever decides that this Russian owned company's US based Uranium manufacturing operation is up to any kind of shenanigans he can send in the FBI, HLS, CIA, National Guard, Army, Navy, Air Force, Police and anybody else the thinks best qualified to put a stop to it. Not that I expect that Trump will need to or want to do that in view of what good terms he is with his bestest friend Vladimir. (Fun fact: The Uranium One deal was unanimously approved by no less than nine US government agencies and Hillary only had control over one of them, the State Department).
Does this count the number of times he golfed? Or just the number of times he went to a golf course? He owns a bunch of them, you know...
If the former, then he gets an amazing amount of work done while golfing. If the latter, well - fake news is fake, ya know?
Hmmm... Let's click the nifty complete data table link and find out shall we...
40 confirmed golfing trips.
28 probable golfing trips.
17 probably non-golfing related trips to a Golf course.
So even if we discard everything except Trump's confirmed golf trips he's been golfing every eight days at a cost of at least $42,510,956 to the tax payer. I'm sure you'll consider that a good investment of your taxes.
