Trump's trips to his own golf courses have cost taxpayers $115 million, nearly 287 years of presiden

So?

 

You are actually trying to make this argument? That because Obama didn't own a golf course we don't know what he would have done?

That defense is weak, at best. C'mon man! Gotta come to the table with something more meaty that that.

 

So =where, when, how long and how often are irrelevant?

 

Obama played a lot of golf and he required all the protection Trump did. The spending was probably about the same. I'm sure Trump would have been glad to have had him play on his course since Obama didn't own one.

 

If he was using a military base like Obama did then no

 

That of course does not include this

Wow! Excuses getting poorer

 

I have to look up how many trips Obama took but per wikipedia to countries, he made 58. Some more than one time. But thank god he never visited our troops in dangerous areas in his 8 years.

 

That "spending" of tax-payer money didn't personally enrich Obama.

Can't you differentiate the two situations?? If you can't I will elaborate but I have faith in you!

 

Obama only played on a military base for 8 years then?

 

There were courses at military bases near Washington, at Martha's Vineyard, and in Hawaii where he took annual holidays.

In 2013 there was a trip to Florida to play a round with Tiger Woods, which cost US taxpayers nearly $3.6 million, according to a report by the Government Accountability Office.

The costs included use of Air Force One to get there and US Coast Guard boats to guard the course.

Mr Obama's passion for golf was all the more surprising because he was not a particularly good player when first elected, with a 17 handicap that was believed to be generous.

 

Of course not. When Trump plays golf at a military base, apparently those don't count.

 

Why would the VP not pay his bill wherever he stayed?

 

Obama and Biden didn't need hotels, they had Burisma.

 

Let me see, so Trump plays golf and charges himself for the green fees and lodging?

 

Do you ever stop making up things that are easily proven wrong?

 

The cost of these trips is not the point. The point is the fact that Trump personally benefits from this spending.

 

And I'll bet it's cash transactions so he can avoid the taxes. Oh if we could only get his tax returns.

 

Nope. Trump charges the tax-payer, which I have no problem with. I do have a problem when that same tax-payer money personally lines Trump's pockets. This is the issue at hand.

 

He gets the tax payers to pay the bills, the money going directly into Trump's pocket

 

He is consistent.

 

Mr Nicholson told Golf Digest: "When he'd shoot an 11 on a hole I'd say, 'Boss, What did you shoot?' And he'd say, 'I had an 11.' And that's what he'd write on his scorecard. I always respected that."

He said the president had once told him that after he left office he wanted to become a single figure handicapper.

In the annals of US presidents Mr Obama's final tally of 306 rounds is high, but he was far outstripped by two other men.

President Dwight Eisenhower played an estimated 800 rounds in office, calling golf "the best game of them all".

And President Woodrow Wilson manged to fit in over 1,000 rounds between 1913 and 1921. Despite all his efforts his wife was a better player.

Tax payers didn't pay Biden's expenses? This crap is so petty.

 

So you mean I am a liar? I want it on the record what you are calling me.

 

This post is not even coherent.
