    And by the way... Trump won't be staying at and playing golf at his Mar A Lago this weekend. Instead, he has a long weekend planned at his New Jersey resort and golf club. Good news for us tax payers... this resort/golf course is apparently less expensive. So Trump brags about saving the country money.

    This is going to be his summer retreat. The town has already been informed of it and sent the White House an estimate for what their costs will be because of it.

    Lol. Trump comes off as a person who lives in his own reality.

    That is maybe the most charitable explanation I can think of.

    If the success of a presidency is measure by how much time the president spend at the golf courses, Trump would be the greatest president in history.

    Fox News don't have time to cover what the Trumps are doing because they are too busy with the Obama family.

    I was looking for the paragraph that said Obama was costing the taxpayer money with his vacations and didn't find it anywhere.

    How awesome is it though to be able to take your teenage daughters to Brando's private island, to Bali, to Necker Island, to Oahu, and to Tuscany in one extended globetrotting jaunt? Aside from the tedium of almost always being on islands, that's a great opportunity for a father. I hope they are having a great time.

    I haven't been disappointed with Obama's or Trump's work ethic. I don't think either are lazy.

    In all honesty, I agree, all of our presidents, past and present had/have an incredibly demanding job that doesn't follow a clock. If Trump and some of the Obama critics hadn't made a big stink about Obama's golf course visits hardly any criticism for Trump would be warranted. Just as none of the complaints about GWB trips to Crawford (and to be honest, I liked that GWB mountain biked there... a shared activity). But Trump opened the door with all of his tweets about Obama...

    Those were dumb and ridiculous attack on Obama golfing. Didn't give a care about the Trump visits, until the price tag :eek:. Royalty.

    Not that it matters compared to the rest of the scandals, but Trump is now up to 21% of his time in office (35 days) spent golfing.

    The positive way to view Trump's preference to play golf than govern... it means he only has 79% of his time screwing up the country...

    I wonder how "scrubbed" these logs will be. And note... no such logs from Trump Tower are available...
