Trump’s Golf Trips Could Cost Taxpayers Over $340 Million
06/30/20
When he was campaigning President Trump frequently bashed President Obama for playing golf and said that he would be too busy to play. Per a HuffPost article he said, “I love golf, but if I were in the White House, I don’t think I’d ever see Turnberry again. I don’t think I’d ever see Doral again,” he told a rally audience in February 2016, referring to his course near the Miami airport. “I don’t ever think I’d see anything. I just want to stay in the White House and work my ass off.
It took less than two weeks before he broke that promise vs. Obama not playing his first round until he had been in office for about three months and Obama didn’t visit a course outside of the DC area until August 2009, seven months after his inauguration. One reason Trump has been able to play so much golf is that he inherited an economy that was in very good shape vs. Obama taking office in the teeth of the Great Recession.
As can be seen in the chart below from trumpgolfcount.com, Trump has played at least 88 rounds of golf since he became President, has likely played 139 and has visited golf courses over 193 days. These compare to Obama’s 76 outings over the same timeframe.
I love playing golf. Because golf is my business. The average amount of profit for playgrounds, services and hotels is 75% after tax.
Just play and get paid. Why not?

Chart này chưa cho chúng ta nh́n thấy điều bên trong.
Đó là khi ông Obama đi đánh golf th́ các công ty khác của Mỹ thu tiền.
C̣n khi ông Trump đi đánh golf th́ ông Trump thu tiền.
