American Public Spent $43 Million Last Year So Trump Could Play Golf

In sum, President Trump made a confirmed 88 visits to various golf courses in 2017. Some caution, however, as a confirmed visit to a golf club doesn’t necessarily equate to a confirmed game of golf. That list is available in full here.

To break down the numbers a bit, taxpayers shelled out just shy of $20 million for airfare on Trump’s golf outings to Mar-a-Lago alone. An additional $8.5 million was spent on flights to Trump’s Bedminister club.

The site also features a side-by-side comparison between Presidents Obama and Trump–both maligned by their respective political opposition for spending an inordinate amount of time out on the links.

When the 44th and 45th presidents face-off over the dubious honor, however, Trump beats Obama hands-down. In fact, it’s not even close: After the first year of each man’s presidency, Obama had only played golf 28 times; Trump definitely played at least 43 times in that same timespan–and likely played around 76 games of golf–at a cost of roughly $1 million per game–all on the dime of the American people.

"I'm going to be working for you; I'm not going to have time to go play golf,"

After dozens of screaming tweets attacking Obama for his vacations and golfing, Trump spent more on vacations and golfing in his first year than Obama spent in all eight years put together.

Silence from the Trumptards, of course, because hypocrisy is hilarious as long as it makes "the libbies explode, dur dur dur."
 
Up to 77 million dollars now at his golf courses


Barack played 3% of his 8 Years as President, Taxpayers paid $85 million in Vacations which Included Golfing, a total in the 8 years he was President. a total of 333 rounds, 1,665 hours, averaged about 41 rounds a year.

President Dwight Eisenhower played an estimated 800 rounds while president. Woodrow Wilson played while in office, a figure estimated to be around 1,200 rounds while he was President.

Trump spends about 25% of his time Golfing at his Golf Courses. He has Played 145 Rounds so far while being President. His pace as of Aug. 6, 2018 Trump would spend as much as 745 days of his presidency at a golf course. Costing Taxpayers $77,000,000.00 in the 1 1/2 Years so far while Being President

 
How many dollars is that per round? I hope he got his money on a per stroke basis.

Funny. Liberals keep harping on President Donald Trump going on golfing when Barack Obama went golfing so many times, went traveling on Air Force One on a whim with the family, went to California to fund raise multiple times, using Air Force One, a huge security contingent, tying up traffic in California, costing millions in lost time and opportunity to average people, flew multiple planes in his travels, spent $10 trillion in his 8 years in office with nothing to show for it but, the very bad Obamacare still creating havoc and misery for majority of Americans? Now, complaining about the $1 trillion in tax cuts that benefitted majority of Americans which stimulated the economy, created more jobs, put more monies in your pockets, gave most Americans renewed hope for the US. Sorry, foreign trolls, you do not count! Who cares about you fools? You are already in your Socialist Utopia so, why so glum? Let me guess. Your lives are not so glorious as you fools like to mouth off and you are all miserable! After all, why should you care how Americans live their lives when you have your own life to live?
