President Trump is officially on vacation, but he tweeted Monday morning that he's working from his golf club in New Jersey.

In a flood of tweets, Trump also blasted "fake news" while insisting his base of support remains strong in the Republican Party despite a report in The New York Times Sunday that Republicans, including Vice President Mike Pence, are positioning themselves to run in 2020.
