having another president die on their watch. They probably don't have as many threats to investigate as Obama's SS, but they can see the numbers.

On military bases, which meant a much lower cost for security.

Every time Trumpy plays, it is way more expensive than any other president’s rounds cost.

The only upside to him playing at his Virginia course is that he doesn’t (or can’t. I bet he would if he could) use AF1 to get there.

The amount of money he spends on travel for himself and his grifter family dwarfs any preceding administration.

...on National Capitol Region base golf courses. If he wanted to play eighteen holes, they just had to drive there.

Trump plays on courses that require plane travel, and they’re Deutsche Bank’s courses (yeah, I know his name is on them, but Dickhead doesn’t really own anything so...) so the government has to pay him for cart rentals, parking, meals and lodging for his guards...

of our taxpayer money going for anything this poisonous family does is driving me crazy! Endangered species hunting trips, golf outings etc.... because he does NOT DESERVE it. A lazy misanthrope living off of our backs and enriching his family and friends.

I wake up hot with rage every day! PBO actually did his job governing this once great nation and he needed relaxing to recharge his batteries. WHAT the hell does this bloated bag of dicks do? Sitting around trying to figure out how to harm us over and over again.

As I said in my post up above, when Obama played at a military base, like Joint Base Andrews, where the AF1 aircraft are kept and has a world class course. or so I have read, the security costs were a fraction of what it takes to cover ANY of Trumpy’s rounds.

so forget that for right now, but after the election, we need to come after Trump HARD. No more of this namby-pamby "we have to look forward and not backward" bullshit. Pelosi insisted on that after Bush. After Trump, no way in hell.
