Since taking office, President Trump, 79, has played several rounds of golf. President Trump owns courses in New Jersey, Virginia, Florida and Europe. However, one of them remains &#8220;under review,&#8221; due to his legal issues.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">President Trump&#8217;s prestigious course in Bedminster, New Jersey is under review due to his legal issues. President Trump was convicted on 34 counts of falsifying business records in New York last year. New Jersey laws prohibit a person convicted of a crime \u201cinvolving moral turpitude\u201d from having a liquor license. President Trump&#8217;s prestigious New Jersey course needs a liquor license to sell beer, wine, etc. at the course.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">You can&#8217;t really have a country club without a liquor license, can you?<\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"Former US president Donald Trump playing golf at his Trump Turnberry course in South Ayrshire during his visit to the UK.
