Donald Trump lost it on the federal judge opposed to the government’s work to improve a public golf course in Washington, D.C., in a social media screed early Monday morning, saying his administration has an “absolute right” to perform the work.

In a Truth Social post before dawn, Trump attacked U.S. District Judge Ana C. Reyes, a day after he unveiled his plans to close the public East Potomac Golf Course for 15 months to construct “one of the Best and Most Spectacular Golf Courses anywhere in the World.”

    Yeah, he wants to privatize it, give contracts and future control to himself and buddies, and he wants to name it after himself, I guarantee it. If I’m not mistaken this wasn’t just a public course, it was a low cost public course - he can’t stand the idea of regular and poor people benfiting from government services or being on golf courses.

      And with a lot of public parkland around it. The plans show the removal of Ohio Drive, a very poplar biking/jogging/walking route. Can’t have non-rich people anywhere near his precious…balls.
