Donald Trump frequently complains that his New York hush money trial is keeping him off the campaign trail, but he used this week's day off to hit the links instead of meet voters.

Justice Juan Merchan ordered the former president to attend each day of his trial, but the judge does not hold court on Wednesdays. Trump spent the day golfing at his Bedminster, New Jersey, club instead of visiting battleground states or making his case for the 2024 election, sources told CNN.

Trump has complained repeatedly, including as recently as Monday, that his criminal trial for allegedly falsifying financial records was keeping him from campaigning or attending his son's high school graduation....

He has not been making sense, and when he does speak he is getting himself in legal trouble.

He is about to spend time in jail as a result. the more he speaks, the more he will screw up.

once in his first 100 days in office. Trump played golf 19 times in his first 100 days.

Trump spent Wednesday playing golf at his Bedminster club, sources told CNN. Wednesday’s the only weekday court isn’t in for his NY criminal trial. Trump has lamented that trial has kept him off campaign trail: “Im not in GA or FL or NC campaigning like I should be” he said Mon.

The trial has never stopped Trump from campaigning. The Republican Party has nominated a man who is lazy and does want to campaign. Before the trial, Trump was only holding one event a week usually on Saturday evenings. Trump could be campaigning all over the country when the court is not in session.

Instead, he is choosing to hang out at his club, and rage post on Truth Social.

The polling has shown a shift toward President Biden in the last month, but Trump seems to have no urgency about him.

Trump isn’t campaigning because he doesn’t want to. This isn’t the Donald Trump of 2016 who seemed to be everywhere and put in the legwork to get his voters out.

Donald Trump really isn’t trying in 2024, and his claim that the trial is keeping him off the campaign trail is a lie that is disproven by his own choices when the court is not in session.
