Talk about government waste!

Quote:
Trump criticized predecessor Barack Obama for spending too much time playing golf — but is on track to pass Obama’s eight-year total in just four years.

President Donald Trump has pushed his taxpayer-funded golf tab past $118 million on his 26th visit to Mar-a-Lago, his for-profit resort in Palm Beach, Florida, with a Saturday visit to his course in neighboring West Palm Beach.

The new total is the equivalent of 296 years of the $400,000 presidential salary that his supporters often boast that he is not taking.

Impeach him! Oh wait, they already did, but perhaps Pelosi can get it added to the articles of impeachment. It’s no secret that they’re looking for something else to try and pin on him before they deliver to the Senate. Spending money playing golf is right up there with the rest of the BS.
And.... at least they might even be able to prove it this time. They might not even have to lie!

They are waiting from someone to come out of the woodwork with claims that they heard it from a friend who, heard from a friend who, heard it from another that Trump was playing the back 9 with Putin on a recent trip to Florida and they were overheard discussing how to effectively meddle in 2020 election.

President is a 24/7 job. What is the normal day to day cost in DC for a president?

Quote from trump at an August 2016 rally:

“If I win I may never see my property — I may never see these places again. But because I’m going to be working for you, I’m not going to have time to go golfing, believe me. Believe me. Believe me, folks.”

That takes a lot of balls. I'm guessing Titleist Pro V1, ideal for slow golf swings.
