Yikes!! Baldwin's gonna have to stuff a couple pillows under his shirts to keep up with this clown. In just the last 3 weeks, he's put on a massive amount of weight!


If this continues maybe his next reality tv appearance can be "My 600 Pound Life".

On top of Trump plus entourage flying back and forth, do taxpayers
pay for the other cabinet members to go also? Seems like his whole staff is
flying back and forth and I don't think they all are on air force one.
How about the people he calls in for interviews for staff and other positions?

Don't be too sure about NYC getting a break. Where is Barron on weekends? Has Trump seen the child since Inauguration Weekend? Barron doesn't seem to have come back to the White House, and if he's gone to Mar-a-Lago with his parents, they've done a great job of keeping him invisible.

Don't misunderstand me - I certainly don't think Barron needs to be in the spotlight, but an occasional glimpse of him or brief mention of him ("Barron enjoyed playing golf with his dad last weekend", or "Barron and his mother are checking out potential new schools in Washington for next year") is not going to cause anyone any harm.

Barron seemed to be a perfectly normal eleven-year-old on Inauguration Day, and he clearly enjoyed the parade and waving at the crowds. So where is he on weekends? I'd think his father would miss him and would want to spend time with him...but then, where's Tiffany? Anybody seen her since the Inauguration?

Maybe she's hanging out with her little brother.

Donald Trump will visit Mar-a-Lago again this Friday, for the third weekend in a row | Blogs

Donald tweeted at least 17 times about how Obama played too much golf.


I can't stand that fat, lying, hypocrite.


Costing us what, a million dollars, every week-end to Fly down to the 'Winter White House' as Kellyanne loves to call it?


And then another million a day to make sure Melania never has to live with her husband?


Oh, but don't worry - he's real busy looking out for the little guy! And . . Russia.

Every time, there would be 10 threads about it.

Aren't you glad then that Hillary wasn't elected? She couldn't even handle a 9/11 ceremony without passing out.

One would think that if our country is trying to cut down on frivolous spending, the President should not be traveling for leisure every single week.
I will go along with that on the frivolous spending. If he cuts back on other spending, then this won't be a big deal - accept to those who simply seek to criticize and nitpick.

I wholeheartedly disagree. Cutting back on spending in other areas of the government to "fund" his leisurely weekend getaways is not acceptable. Especially considering how massive the cost is to transport the President and all required personnel as well as the additional cost for Mrs. Trump to remain in NYC.

It absolutely is a big deal if Trump cuts spending elsewhere just to fund a getaway every weekend. It's not "nitpicking" to point out that our country is projected to have a $500 billion deficit for just this fiscal year. Perhaps instead of merely cutting "other expenses", our Legislative and Executive branches could work on creating an actual "Presidential Leisurely Travel Budget" and stick to it.

Bonus points if the Presidential Leisurely Travel Budget doesn't get funding until the federal budget is balanced rather than running on a deficit.
