President Donald Trump has been talking about grass in at least 45 public events or interviews over the past 18 months. He often brings up his experience with golf courses and his efforts to revamp the White House and greater Washington.
Trump’s Love of Grass
Trump’s interest in grass stems from his decades as a New York real estate developer and his personal love of building things and overseeing construction projects. He has mentioned grass while promoting his Washington beautification efforts and has even discussed it with experts in the field.
Trump has said that he knows a lot about grass because he owns a lot of golf courses. He has also stated that he is very good at grass and has pledged to make the parks in Washington look like those at the Augusta National Golf Club.
The president’s fixation on grass has led him to remove grass for new construction, such as the stone patio near the White House’s Rose Garden. He has also discussed the need for a new helipad on the South Lawn, which has resulted in the removal of more grass.
