According to reports, President Donald Trump spent his day Sunday on the course at his his Loudon County Trump National Golf Club in Washington, D.C. It marks the 21st outing to a golf course the president has taken since being sworn in.

Who couldnt blame Trump for seeking to blow off some steam on the fairway, like many a president before him? It was a very busy week in Trumpland, with the abrupt firing of F.B.I. director James Comey and its ensuing fallout. Some driving range therapy would do the man well. Trumps packed calendar even entered the shifting Comey narrative. White House press secretary Sean Spicer has said that Trumps robust schedule sometimes doesnt allow them to get his full and accurate thoughts on a subject before press conferences, which leads to confusion down the road. Trump even tweeted about abolishing the conferences altogether for this very reason:

As plenty of Twitter users noted, Trumps latest golf outing came shortly after Fox News aired an interview the president granted Jeanine Pirro in which he praised his own work ethic.

Heres the thing, the difference between me and another president, Trump said in the clip, which aired Saturday. Another president, I wont use names, but another president doesnt do what Im doing. They really dont. Im not saying that in a bragging way.

I know, Pirro responded.

Im not saying it any way, Trump said. Another president, Jeannine, will sit in the Oval Office and do practically nothing all day.

On Sunday, he was true to his word.
