Trump Seizes D.C.'s Busiest Golf Course for His Latest Tacky Makeover [View all]

President Donald Trump is ready to take on his next renovation.

The president is shutting down the busiest public golf course in Washington, D.C. on Sunday so that he can rip it up and turn it into what he envisions as another over-the-top homage to his own power.

The National Park Service will begin landscaping and clearing trees at the East Potomac Golf Links on Monday, while the president develops a complete redesign, NOTUS reported.

“This news was a complete surprise to us,” a spokesman for The National Links Trust, the most recent leaseholder of the golf course, told NOTUS. “For the sake of our community and employees, we hope to have clarity as soon as possible. We remain committed to our mission, our community, and working to protect the public golf courses in Washington, D.C. for the benefit of the entire community.”
