Trump and Pence's Epic MLK Day Fail

President Trump's first stop Monday was Trump International Golf Club, apparently beginning the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday with golf rather than the charitable service the slain civil rights leader's family has urged as the best way to memorialize him.

The morning after declaring “I'm not a racist,” Trump began his Monday the same way he has begun each day of the three-day holiday weekend: with tweets sent before leaving his private Mar-a-Lago estate and then a short motorcade to the golf club.

Trump returned to Mar-a-Lago hours later, and drove from there to the airport in late afternoon. He was not seen in public until he boarded Air Force One.

A White House spokesman did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the president's day, including whether he was playing golf.

Trump's weekly address, released Monday, honored King. About 11 a.m., roughly two hours after he arrived at the golf club, Trump retweeted the White House post containing the video.
