President Trump kicked off Presidents Day at his private golf course in West Palm Beach, Fla., Monday morning, hitting the greens for the third day in a row since declaring a national emergency at the southern border.

Trump’s motorcade arrived at Trump International Golf Club just before 8:50 a.m., on par with his arrival times the past few days. The course is a 15-minute drive east from his Mar-a-Lago resort.

He golfed both weekend days, including six hours on Saturday.

George Conway, husband to White House counselor Kellyanne Conway, joked Sunday that the golf outing was an “emergency round.”

The Monday tour marks the 159th time the president has visited a golf course since his inauguration in January 2017, according to Trump Golf Count. Another count states it is his 172nd visit.
