Trump plays golf 3 times as much as Obama, costing $43 mil.

Journal by DeathMonkey

Donald Trump has spent 81 days on the golf course in his first year as President, racing past his predecessors.

Mr Trump, after a weekend at his Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida, has spent more time on the green than George W Bush did during eight years in office.

The President has also been on the golf course almost three times as much as Barack Obama did during his first year.

The American public spent at least $43 million in order to support President Donald Trump‘s considerable golf habit in 2017.

    Can we assume you'd prefer him to be spending more time writing presidential orders, tweeting messages to North Korea, firing liberal employees, and signing laws?

    That said, golf is:

    1. something done with foreign leaders (part of Trump's job)

    2. merely a visit to his second home, which just happens to be situated on a golf course that Trump owns and can thus play for free

    I really think you'd be happier if you embraced American values. It takes a lot of energy to hate America. This negativity is hurting you.
