    Yeah, you go giggle all the way while trashing people wanting a honest day wage for a honest day work.
    While protecting a multi millionaire getting +100 million in governmental aid, to waste on leisure.
    Raising him above the law, because that is what it takes to protect him at all costs.
    Sounds like you demand a dictator in the land of the free. Do giggle all the way....

    In golf cart rentals? What is it with some people they demand freedom but don't want it for others?

    He didn't went on that many vacation trips at all compared to Trump. Dunno why you're bringing that up.

    Trump is free to pay for his own vacations. But not free to be above the law when others must follow it.
    But here you are turning a logical world upside down for the sake of your narrative.

    So, you admit that Obama also got "governmental aid" every time he took a vacation? Good to know.

    the difference is, Obama did not profit off it himself personally like Trump is doing

    Trump has to be poorer than he leads on to be trying this hard to scam the taxpayers - he has to know how bad this looks, but doesn't care, he must need the money

    there is no way smoking costs 289 billion a year, sounds like someone is profiting off the anti-smoking drive, all those commercials and such

    now say sugar(carbs) costs that much in metabolic diseases like diabetes type 2 and 3 ... maybe

    this doesn't even include all the cost of metabolic disease, just the big one, Diabetes

    Obama net worth in 2008: $3.6 million
    Obama net worth today: $40 million

    Obama profited plenty off of his Presidency.

    Obama taking a taxpayer vacation is taking taxpayer money. Try to keep up.

    I think Obama was a lot poorer in 2008 than that shows. And his enormous gain in wealth probably gives Donald plenty of hope he too will gain a lot after he leaves office.

    It is refreshing to see dems take a sudden interest in opposing the abuse of our tax dollar. If dems are more responsible, why do they have to raise taxes?

    always have, Trump jr's two 10+ year wars were over 7 Trillion dollars per Trump, is that really the way the right prefers to spend our tax dollars?

    the debt is higher now under Trump than any President ever... and Trump is taking our tax dollars for his own like it was from his own personal piggy bank

    when is the right gonna oppose the abuse of our tax dollar.

    the dems only want to raise the taxes on the rich back to what they were under Reagan

    why does the right want to give the rich lower taxes, the left wants to lower taxes on the middle class, not the rich

    Trump lines his own pockets, see the problem there - if Trump gave a "at cost" rate, no issues

    this does for all gov employees, Trump is not above the law

    what's next, gov official rent out their backyard to have a barbecue to 250k at a pop - why not, just rent it out even though it's your own party and property

    even Trump knew he was pushing it too far with the G8, but he gave it a shot, Republicans were getting nervous

    The right will oppose abuse when the dems are in power.
    The dems only want to raise taxes to reward themselves for irresponsibility.
    Neither party has a shred of respect for our money.
