The numbers are in. donald tapped out at 298 days of his 4-year presidency golfing, a total of over 43 weeks, according to Trump Golf Count. That is just shy of an entire year he spent golfing. The cost to taxpayers for Trump's outings ran about $146,000,000. But he was super generous for not accepting his presidential salary.

Yeah, he was.


Presidents' Salaries During and After Office

"While in office, the U.S. president receives a salary of $400,000 a year and a $50,000 expense account. Congress added the expense account in 1949. This pays for the president's personal expenses, such as food and dry cleaning."


Trump Golf Count

"How do you calculate the cost reported on your main page?​

Our total estimated cost currently includes five components: (1) Cost of flights to Mar a Lago and Bedminster, New Jersey, using Philip Bump's estimate of $514,000 per hour of flight time, (2) An additional $6.4 million per year, prorated per day at a rate based on money reimbursed so far, allocated to Palm Beach and Bedminster for "extraordinary law enforcement personnel costs", (3) Coast guard costs for protection of Mar a Lago, estimated at $236,000 per day spent there (see Drew Harwell's report for sources), (4) Costs paid by the U.S. government for Trump's stay at his club and rental of luxury vehicles in Turnberry, Scotland in July, 2018, and (5) Cost of staying at his golf club in Doonbeg, Ireland, rather than London during his visit to the United Kingdom in June, 2019."

AND THAT’S THE BOTTOM LINE
Some sources are saying that Donald Trump played more rounds of golf during his presidency than my entire building

Better yet, a comparative study of Tump's work schedule compared to sleepy Joe if you really want a laugh.
Trump : Work hard, play hard.
Biden: Sleep in, nap, bed early.

You must be kidding. donald didn't read his daily briefing, watched TV all day and tweeted all night.

donald's least favorite thing about being president was all the actual work involved. One of his favorite? Bilking taxpayers for millions of dollars by regularly charging the government for use of his for-profit clubs, which he insisted on visiting throughout his presidency. What a guy!
Joe Biden’s favorite part is keeping his crooked son and bag man out of prison.

Relatively speaking, it seems Trump played more golf on Jesus Day. Obama played golf 306 times over his eight years as President.

The Washington Post reported that the 280 visits donald had made to his own properties from the start of his presidency through October 2020 had cost taxpayers (as well as his political supporters) roughly $8.1 million, a not-so-insignificant sum that happened to be more than his hotels in Hawaii and Vancouver had generated in revenue during the same period.

According to a new report from the Post’s David Fahrenthold and Josh Dawsey, Mar-a-Lago, the Palm beach resort where Trump now lives has been charging the Secret Service $396.15 a night, every night, since January 20. Of course he could have charged the Secret Service nothing but, naturally, is always out to make a buck on the backs of taxpayers. Though former presidents do get protection for life, presidential experts the Post spoke to “could not find another example of a president charging the Secret Service rent on this scale.”

"{Here are some signs of a big-timer grifter. Fast-talking. Making lots of money sound like nothing. Mentioning repeatedly his own success, even when the grifter has a history of failures. Dropping the names of Fortune 500 companies and rich tech founders. Pretending to be confident. Over-using social media (like Twitter). Controlling some elements of the press (like Fox Commentary, OAN and NewsMax). Making promises that do not come true. And then changing the subject. Painting a group of others as the mutual enemy and demonizing them. Misleading people."

I don't like Trump either. Glad we've got a "Still really angry at Trump" character here on BC so we never forget where on the doll he touched our country.
Losing in 2020 is going to be one of his more his most lucrative scams. I don't for a minute think he believes he really won. He just saw that he could use that lie to keep his base fired up and beg them for money. Funny way for an alleged billionaire to behave.

I've seen it reported that Hillary charges the Secret Service to stay at her New York estate.
