Hmm - I think it's possible to care about those things, too.

Ah - so you don't think it isn't possible to care about more than one thing at a time? I'm not sure why it is an "either or" thing with you.

Care to link to some of these faves?

I think you and your ilk are partisan hacks and if Trump was on your team you'd sit silent or defend his spending same as you did with the last guy.

I'm not a member of a party - how can I be a partisan hack?

I think there is plenty of corruption and over-spending in the D party, and I'm not a fan of it. Kind of a major reason why I'm NOT a member of either party.


Obama's spending on golf outings was much less, as evidenced by this site. And Obama wasn't calling out his predecessor on Twitter like Trump had been, either (so not only did he spend less, he wasn't a giant hypocrite about it, either).

Trump certainly wasn't silent about Obama's golfing. Unfortunately for him, his tweets greatly highlight his hypocrisy on this issue.

My, this thread has not kept up with the times. Latest 'Trump Golf Count' is 67 times:


Trump Golf Count


I guess the President did not find his duties as onerous as he has thought they would be, prior to the election.

But, but, but, he donated $200k of his salary to the government.

Lol. Drop in the bucket.
For sure.
As soon as the Mar-a-Lago winter season begins, count on that figure to triple or quadruple.
The more the pressure builds on Trump in Washington, the more time he will spend there.

His laid-off, opioid addicted, ex-coal miners are NOT paying for these trips. We the liberals, who went to college, got great jobs (and retirements)....we're paying for this idiot's binge-golfing.
