After 5+ hours at @PGAWESTGOLF, Pres Obama heading to make statement on passing of Justice Scalia.
— Mark Knoller (@markknoller) February 14, 2016
Obama was informed of the Scalia news well before he got to hole 18. Yet he decided to keep golfing anyway.
— Matthew Boyle (@mboyle1) February 14, 2016
Apparently Obama thought it best to finish playing a round of golf before commenting about the death of a Supreme Court justice.
