Remember a year ago when conservatives criticized Obama when he played golf? Not only does Trump play golf a lot more often, it's costing US taxpayers plenty, forcing the Secret Service to fly frequently back and forth to Florida.

Trump's golf addiction -- otherwise known as his work avoidance -- is costing the taxpayer plenty. So far the Secret Service has spent $35,000 on golf cart rentals to protect the President. Wow. Total disregard for the taxpayer!

And whose companies get that money? LOL. Can you imagine the outrage of Obama had done stuff like this? The hypocrisy of so many on the right, and by Trump himself is mind boggling.

How anyone can defend this is beyond me.

Then again, he did say he could use the presidency to make money for himself.

What Does Donald Trump Really Want? (Fortune, 2000) | Fortune.com

Trump had inked a deal with Tony Robbins, the frighteningly upbeat motivational speaker, by which Robbins would pay Trump $1 million to give ten speeches at his seminars around the country. Crucially, Trump had timed his political stops to coincide with Robbins' seminars, so that he was "making a lot of money" on those campaign stops. "It's very possible that I could be the first presidential candidate to run and make money on it," Trump said

Trump's got an arrogant streak, insists on being treated like a king. He's got people riled up in the UK because he's insisting on riding in the Queen's horsedrawn carriage when he visits there. Donald "Let Them Eat Cake" Trump....

Fiscal conservatives turn a blind eye and Trump has no problem cutting Meals on Wheels.
