In August 2016, he looked you in the eye and promised he would be too busy working for the American people to ever play golf. In this episode, I show you the receipts on what that promise actually cost. Two terms. 403 days at his own resorts. $9.7 million for a single trip to Scotland to open a course named after his mother. $1,185 a night charged to your government for Secret Service rooms at his own hotels. A quarter of a billion dollars of your money, and counting.

Listen here for all the details => https://mitchthelawyer.substack.com/p/trump-golfs-you-pay-heres-the-bill-7a8?utm_campaign=post-expanded-share&utm_medium=web

Trump has assassination events.

Well, since the Trumpster isn't taking a presidential salary, then it seems that you nitpicking over Trump playing golf is just pathetic. On top of that, we had a previous president that took about 40% of his presidency as vacation. For you to complain about what Trump's doing now is very moronically ironic.

The article is actually about the cost of the vacations and the techniques by which DJT enriches himself from them. It would be interesting to learn how that compares to his predecessors.

As regards Biden, I wouldn't be surprised if many of the "vacation" days were tied to medical necessity.

Think about this when you strap on your gas mask and ceramic plate vest and push thru the armed proudboys and enter the polling booth and remind yourself how many times did you have to juggle bills, skip medication, skip a meal, worry about making rent...or fill the tank... all while "workin' fer the Man" as we used to say

On top of the blatant theft, what he plays IS NOT GOLF. Call it donnyball. Unlimited mulligans, free use of foot wedge, gimmes, caddy drops, etc.

C'MON! Have you not heard of all the club champeen-ships he sez he's won? He doesn't even have to play in the tourneys to win!

Since his January 20, 2025 inauguration, public records and White House pool reports counted 110 confirmed golf days across roughly 14 months in office as of late March 2026. He returned to a single course 56 times: Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach.

A HuffPost analysis built on the Government Accountability Office’s 2019 cost study placed the taxpayer tab at $101.2 million as of March 28, 2026. That number has only climbed since.
