Poor Trumpty- his golf won't be quite as much fun.
Trump spent his MLK day off doing what he’s done for nearly a third of his presidency: playing golf. Only this time, he probably didn’t have quite as relaxing an experience as he was hoping for.
Trump was greeted roadside near Mar-a-Lago by a cadre of angry demonstrators wielding signs responding to his recent comment calling Haiti and countries in Africa a “shithole.”
According to the White House press pool, Trump was greeted first by a number of Haitian demonstrators roadside defending their homeland.

A labor report flagged by CNBC reveals that the majority of the staff at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago hail from Haiti, one of the more prominent “shithole countries” by Trump’s account.
According to the report by The New Yorker, the Palm Beach resort’s 64 guest workers come mostly from two places: Romania and Haiti.
More and more diverse demonstrators joined the Haitians at Mar-a-Lago by the time Trump had wrapped up his golf game, according to the pool.
