President Trump headed to his golf course in Virginia with Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) Sunday morning, according to multiple reports.
White House spokeswoman Lindsay Walters confirmed that Trump is golfing with Paul, according to a pool report.
Trump departed the White House just after 10:00 a.m., according to a reporter traveling with the president. Trump was wearing a white polo and USA hat, the reporter added.

Trump and Paul have had a tense relationship in the past. Trump attacked the senator for voting against the bill to repeal ObamaCare, but the two reunited over Trumps executive order rescinding parts of ObamaCare last week.
Paul defended Trumps use of the order and attended the signing ceremony, during which Trump presented him with a pen.
Trump spent Saturday golfing at the Virginia club with Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), marking his second consecutive weekend at the property.
This is Trump's third time golfing with a Republican senator this month, after his two trips with Graham.

Out on the links Rand will reveal to The Donald the ancient Bluegrass State technique of cutting taxes without raising the debt ceiling... REDUCE SPENDING, and quit growing the swamp!
IMO
Will President Trump consider cutting freebies to his beloved Dream Student illegal aliens, and deport them? Stay tuned for further developments in the education of a NYC progressive.
Trump may just enjoy wiping the greens with small Southern senators. By all reports, Trump is an exceptional player for a man his age.
Even so, Rand has unusual access to Trump, more than the other rivals for the 2016 nomination. He is telling Trump something that Trump wants to hear. Like those EOs dealing with healthcare.
