President Trump and the first lady are scheduled to depart Friday for their annual August vacation at his New Jersey country club as political storms loom in Washington. Trump will head off to Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster amid North Korea’s defiance of its nuclear testing ban, the trade war with China, continuing tensions with Iran, the Democratic presidential primary race, and the question of new gun-control measures in the aftermath of two deadly mass shootings last weekend. The Associated Press reports that Trump, who has previously condemned vacationing presidents, will hold a series of official events and side trips during his two-week holiday, though his aides reportedly said his attention will be on golf, cable news, and Twitter.
