Trump to Attend ‘Trumpettes’ Event at Mar-a-Lago Tonight Headlined by Roseanne Barr

Donald Trump is currently in Palm Beach, Florida this weekend, spending Super Bowl weekend at his Mar-a-Lago resort.

Thus far Trump has spent the day golfing, and even took to Twitter to brag about it.

In the photo, Trump, wearing a white golf shirt and read ‘Make America Great Again’ hat, is teeing off at one of the holes at his Florida course.

Neither the president nor his staff talks much about Trump’s golf habit or who he plays with.

It is rare for the administration to admit he is playing golf and they rarely name his golf partners.

But Trump has other plans for the weekend.

After his time on the golf course Saturday, Trump is expected to head back to Mar-a-Lago where the Trumpettes USA will hold their third annual Red, White and Blue Event to support the president.

Roseanne Barr and Donald Trump Jr. are scheduled to attend.

Barr was fired by ABC from her self-named sitcom in May 2018 after a series of racist tweets, including one where she described former Obama aide Valerie Jarrett as the offspring of the “Muslim Brotherhood & Planet of the Apes.”

Trump tweeted his support for Barr during the scandal.

Barr later said she was really fired for being a Donald Trump supporter. The two are longtime allies. The president called her in March 2018 when her show debuted to record ratings.

She said her political support for the president made her a target.

“All of Hollywood, they just hate him and they hate those of us who like him. There is no way around it,” she said. “So, yeah, I think they took me off because I liked him and I like him because I’m a Jew and he likes Israel.”

The Trumpettes were founded by Toni Holt Kramer, a member of Mar-a-Lago, in September 2015 after Trump had announced his 2016 presidential run. It is made up of women who support Trump.

“Roseanne is a really loyal Trump supporter. If there was ever anybody who really put their mouth on the line and said how much she loves the president, she is one of them,” Kramer told the Palm Beach Post about Barr’s attendance at Saturday night’s gala.

I cannot imagine a worse party:
