$3 mln per weekend (all but 1 so far) for taxpayers. And you guys want to talk about whether Meals on Wheels is effective?
 
I know we are both upset about the carbon footprint alone.

I thought we had decided US debt was an interest free loan to the private sector? If that's the case it's great to inject that money into the economy. Although he is killing the local economy according to what Ive read, I'm sure it's getting redistributed somewhere else.

I wonder about the accuracy of that number (not to be confused with calling you a liar). If the Obama family can spend two weeks in Hawaii for a similar reported amount, somebody's numbers are off somewhere.

At least he's not taking a salary. If the First Lady receives the salary for the rest of her life after the president dies (and I think that's correct) then that's going to be close to a wash, right?

And yes, it's ridiculous.
 
What really pisses me off about this whole deal is that I thought we were gettIng a president who thought a great weekend would be a quick trip down to Fort Benning, pop into a tank, drive around a bit, blow up some shit and then go back to the White House all refreshed and ready for another week of work.

Boy, was I wrong.
 
A blast from the past... Trumps average expenditures are somewhere around $400k per day thus far.

but but but Bush went to Crawford all the time and never worked.....blah blah blah.

Said it before and will say it again, him and the first wookie act like first round NBA picks. Can't believe they drone on about rich people paying "their fair share" when those fools haven't met a vacation destination yet they don't like and don't pay a dam dime for it.

If they didn't spend one more penny on a vacation for the rest of his pathetic term, that would come to an average of $23,972 per day spent on vacations for his entire worthless 8 years. Veterans and inner city folks must love that stat.
 
When Trump and Melania take two separate airplanes to the same destination on the same day come back and talk.

It's interesting that it costs $3 million, presumable round trip, for Trump to go to Florida but only cost $1 million one-way for Obama to go to California...$2 million total including the return trip.

Just point us in the direction of your posts going after obama for his Christmas vacations and you can be on the consistency train like me.
Three residences is a bit much. Didn't criticize Bush for Crawford, didn't begrudge Obama family vacations. Think Trump has crossed the line .... now if you think Obama was over the line but Trump isn't - then I question your consistency.
