As the second Trump presidency marks its first 100 days, the concept of time appears to be arbitrarily measured. Amid economic uncertainties such as inflation and tariffs, the article reflects on the president's obsession with golf, noting he has spent a significant portion of his presidency at personal properties, indulging in the sport. The juxtaposition of his golfing with pressing national issues raises questions about priorities, leading to musings about how perceptions of time can vary based on context and leisure activities like golf.

After his tariff announcement on 2 April, Trump was spotted hitting balls at Mar-a-Lago.
