14. Trump was characterized as lazy in his first term

His published schedules, when he wasn't playing golf, were padded with oodles of daily "executive time", which seemed to amount to what most of us know as loafing, so if he's perceived as being more idle now, that's quite an achievement.

It's unclear what the article means by "beef up his public schedule" - does it mean arranging more for him to do every day, or literally just beefing up his schedule, the list of reported activities? Already he's padding out his formal meeting times with extended gushing praise sessions and rhapsodies about the ever-gaudier decor, that's when he's not taking a nap. Can his time on the can be far from being itemized, too?

He looks like death barely warmed up most of the time now anyway, so if he wants to work harder to prove some point, let 'im rip.
