 President Trump, at his luxury seaside golf course here, turned his eye to domestic politics Saturday morning — attacking former president Barack Obama, questioning the FBI, torching CNN and bragging about his 2016 win.

With country roads to the golf course cordoned off and aides mum about the president’s activities on a sunny Saturday morning, he gave a glimpse into his mind around 11 a.m. local time. He also said on Twitter that he planned to golf.
