President Donald Trump was slammed for not spending enough time with his youngest son, Barron.
Democratic Representative Steve Cohen, of Tennessee, ripped the president in a particularly scathing tweet sent on Sunday morning.
‘He golfs when he could be reading or be in church or be with his family. Never see him with Barron.
‘You’d think he’d be golfing with Dad occasionally but narcissists only engage in activities where they are the show.’

‘The Germans said enough about the Jews and the people believed it and you had the Holocaust. You tell a lie over and over again. And we’ve heard on this floor, government takeover of health care,’ he said at the time.
He later said he regretted the remarks and had not intended to ‘diminish the horror of the Nazi Holocaust’
