since taking office, trump has spent just over $24 million on travel and golf.... to put that in perspective, obama spent around $12million / year... and the grand mother that lived with obama cost tax payers about 30k over 8 years.... ms. trump is costing taxpayers around $1million / day living in trump towers.

i made this topic because i could not find the republiCON outrage over trump playing so much golf and spending so much money on vacations... or the added cost of his freeloading family. so i thought i'd give the rt. wingnuts a chance to vent their outrage over trump's needless spending and extravagant vacation practices.

oh JT, i fully expect to be called out on 'fake news' like ole cravin'attention seems to do to anything they disagree with. funny thing about facts.. they tend to stand up on their own. no matter how much the rt. wingnuts wanna deny it or say it ain't so.... trump is showing their hypocrisy by the minute.  it's so funny to see them tap dance around the issues that were so darn important just a few months ago.

"T" it up.

While out on the links according to liberals where Trump spends his time, within a week Trump sent 60 Tomahawk cruise missiles against a Syrian AB used to drop chemical agents on children.

The Russian president sat down to an unscheduled meeting with our SoS regarding Russian complicity in that chemical attack.

 And he dropped a [the first] MOAB on ISIS.

At the same time, contracts are being let out for Trumps Great Wall.  Mexicans want part of the action.

And Trumps not even on the back 9 yet.

BTW, during the 8 years your boy was on the links, it you that washed his balls, wasn't it?

Awwww.  This'll put you in the right frame of mine . . .

Crash, I'm not trying to take issue with your statements or question the information where you got your figures because frankly I haven't taken time to check on them or do I care to.  Obama, like many that have occupied the office surely take advantage of the perks of the job and Obama's greatest indulgence was his use of Air Force One.  The issue I have, with your statements, has to do with the grandmother or to be more specific, Michelle's mother.  I don't know how much she personally cost the taxpayers over the 8 years that Obama was in the White house but she was a permanent resident along with the Obamas.  My issue with the grandmother is the annual $180,000.00 check she will draw, from the Government (or Taxpayers) as a severance for claiming she watched the Obama's kids and thus that's her official retirement.  I guess the secret service did nothing all the time but either way I think there are a lot of deserving Americans who would love to have $180,000 a year or even much less, for doing nothing for 8 years.

I don't doubt that Trump or his family may also take advantages of the position but if they do then surely they won't be the first nor the worst.  I challenge you to investigate Harry Reid or Nancy Pelosi and their relatives to see how they went from nothing to very super rich.  I'm sure you will also find the same of many Republicans as well. 

My main issue is don't go put on rose colored glasses when it comes to Democrats and what they do and then complain about Republicans.  At least be fair enough to condemn both, including those you support.  I'm sure there are good folks in both parties but the problem is there are far less of them than the ones that take advantage of their positions.  One thing about Trump, so far, is that he has donated his salary to various governmental departments or put it back into the government's coffers.   He and some of his cabinet are not taking a salary but then given their personal wealth they don't need to either, just like John Kennedy.

Crash is 100% right - the hypocrisy of the right wing lunatics knows no boundaries - they are stuck in their Fox & Breitbart bubbles - hopelessly brainwashed and  oblivious to everything they cried about Obama for 8 years....Trump is their "chosen one" and cannot fathom their God to dissapoint them no matter how hard he stabs them in the back - Trump thrives on this and the reason he loves the uneducated so much

I think I just heard a toilet flush, sounds like a wozzie bug
whining in the wind 

I believe I said that ALL the politicians do it or most of them, that is take advantage of their positions and knowledge, to profit themselves beyond what the average American could or would.  All I said was Democrats (and Liberals) do it also, including Bernie Sanders, many just outright hypocrites doing exactly what they rail against and yes Republicans as well.  

I was just saying if you are going to condemn Republicans then you should be just as quick to condemn Obama who's spending certainly exceeded all Presidents before him, all together that is.  If Trump deserves complaints, fine, complain but if Obama did the exact same thing, you who favor Obama should recognize his errors as well.  Just like those who favor Trump or Republicans should not exclude them if you know of such errors or abuses.

No way in hell had a come back for that s*** sandwich smashed

Talk about showing ones own ignorance, you're a successful businessman. . .   You tell me why a Mexican contractor would want to bid on the wall if he didn't want part of the action.  Maybe he should submit his bid to the Mexican government, huh?  He seems convinced the wall is going up.  How about you?

Examples of flawed logic are azzuming I am either a republican or gay, closet or otherwise.  I'm alright.  Don't nobody worry 'bout me.

 

C.O, you should realize this quarter wit, nearly all legal true Americans
are so happy the country is rid of the berry dingle or whatever the
freaks name is, and the Clintons with all the freaks ragtop connections
you're the only one whining about Trumps expenses.
 
You know CNN has a dating service you would really enjoy, I hear
liberals like that sort of thing. Could take your mind off those
Trump trips you're paying for, plus all those bus rides back to
mexico............

why say to someone 'you were obama's ball washer'.. unless  you were jealous of the job?    trump's approval rating is below 35%... .yep, the majority of americans are happy with trump. flawed rt. wingnut logic... the majority of americans now do not believe anything trump says... that's the new 'poll'. so, america is being run by a man who 65% of the country has little to no trust in... yep, he's doing great.

I'll leave it to others to decide based on what, how you came to that conclusion.

It was because of Obama's obsession with approval ratings that he micromanaged the military.  And here we are.  Hillary lost.

According to the most recent Gallup Poll, your uncited rating is a bit low.

http://www.gallup.com/poll/203...gs-donald-trump.aspx

Tune in tomorrow for a different number. +

Fact is, I know that there are lots of folks, not necessarily like you, who are against the wall, but rest assured it will be built despite pc polls.  Look on the brighter side, maybe the Mexican contractor will win the bid and employ illegal American immigrants.

america's infrastructure is crumbling and rt. wingnuts are concerned with 'building that wall'.. which , btw, the 'experts' have said is a worthless gesture. trump has walked back the majority of his campaign promises that got him elected ... i'm just wondering when the 'winning' starts?

Appears to me C.O is too full of those sandwiches of late.

Actually the travel numbers for both Obama and Trump are political guesstimates for the consumption of partisans:

 https://www.washingtonpost.com...m_term=.8d1564d465f6

I will say that for Obama, getting him away from the pen and phone was much cheaper for the taxpayer than leaving him in the White House to perform his socialist mischief. Trump seems to function well anywhere, so it might be cheaper for him to stay in DC except when cutting deals on the golf course.

And you're entirely wrong about my views of the vacation time of Ol'bama. My only regret about Barry Soetoro's vacations is that they always came to an end. Seriously, the pay for being the CEO of the country is very low so Presidents are compensated in other ways. Presidents are sort of compensated like the CEO's of the 1950's with large expense accounts, company provided lodging and transportation, and paid vacations. The biggest differences are that the president's corporate jet and security are really hUGE and he doesn't get stock options.
