Such a scumbag move by Trump to charge the American taxpayer for Golf cart rentals at his clubs.

It's his own clubs. He is very rich. He spends way too much time at Golf, and these SS personnel are there to protect him.

--
The right were always bitching about Obama's holidays and making snide racial remarks about them but Trump family's security cost are even more.

In August, USA TODAY first reported that the Secret Service can no longer pay the overtime for hundreds of agents it needs to carry out an expanded protective mission – in large part due to the sheer size of Trump's family and efforts necessary to secure their multiple residences up and down the East Coast. Secret Service Director Randolph "Tex" Alles said more than 1,000 agents have already hit the federally mandated caps for salary and overtime allowances that were meant to last the entire year.

It's all good, bro. His assets are in a "blind" trust that his sons control. He can withdraw funds at any time, but he's totally divested from his businesses. Believe me, nobody has ever been more divested than Trump.

If Obama had as many baby mommas as Trump, the rightwing blogosphere would be forthing at the mouth (more than usual). But we all known Obama is not a Christian, while Christian evangelicals flocked to Trump.

As long as it's at a Trump property, no price is to great. MAGA, #winning.

Damn. They created a department for that?

The WBD?

 

[44nutman]

He should send them to his failing golf course in Ireland. That course has lost millions a year since it opened, but it could be a way to raise some revenue before he has to close it like it is an Atlantic City Casino.

It's much worse with Trump because he owns the resorts and is funneling government money into his own businesses. Obama just played golf.

 

[bad seed]

I wonder what mental gymnastics the Trump cucks will go through to defend this one.

 

[TapoutforSprawl]

Would the secret service be allowed to accept free golf carts?

 

[all caps]

And people say the war room is full of alt right racists. Look at this circle jerk of a thread for details.

It’s really crazy how his supporters don’t give a damn about it. I’m fact they don’t even acknowledge it

Do you not see this as a problem? If not, I'd like to hear as to why.

Politics as a whole is a problem. If it wasn't trump going golfing, it would be Hillary flying Russians on private jets. Im not going to be extra outraged just because of who the current president is. They're all fucking bums
