Donald Trump makes first golf trip since outbreak of coronavirus

US president Donald Trump made his first golf outing since the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic on Saturday.

Trump visited the Trump National Golf Club, spotted wearing a white cap and white polo shirt as he arrived at the course.

It was his first time at a golf property since March 8, when he visited his club in West Palm Beach, Florida.

That was the same weekend when he met at his Mar-a-Lago retreat with Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro, whose press secretary later tested positive for the virus.

Some White House staffers who had been in contact with the press aide went into quarantine afterward but none tested positive.

Trump is eager to promote the idea that the United States is returning to normal, although the death toll from the coronavirus outbreak continues to rise and is expected to surpass 100,000 in the coming days.
