"How many times has President Donald Trump played golf while in office?"

[Jeremiahcp]

How many times has Trump played golf as President of the United States? Since taking office on Jan. 20, 2017, Mr. Trump has reportedly been on the grounds of his golf courses 35 times since becoming President, and that's as of July 3. He previously was on pace to visit his golf clubs more than 650 times in an eight-year presidency. He's currently on track to play 480 rounds in office over eight years, assuming he wins re-election and completes both terms. As of July 3, he has spent nearly 22 percent of his days in office at one of his golf properties to play for some portion of the day.

Here are some quotes from Trump:

“Because I'm going to be working for you, I'm not going to have time to play golf. Believe me,” he told supporters in Virginia in August 2016.

“I don’t think I’d ever see many of the places I have,” he said in New Hampshire as he criticised Mr Obama’s golfing excursions. “I don’t think I’d ever see anything, I just want to stay in the White House and work my *** off and make great deals, right? Who’s gonna leave?”

Donald Trump has ‘spent time at Golf clubs once every five days as president’

Ask yourself....
Do you want him in the White House or on the golf course?

Nitpick level: over nine thousand!

Nitpick level: over nine thousand!

President Donald Trump has racked up an historic amount of travel expenses in his first 100 days in office, by far surpassing the president who came before him.

Estimates of Mr Trump’s costs have been made based on a similar trip former President Barack Obama took to Florida by way of Chicago. On that trip, in February 2013, Mr Obama visited Palm Beach, Florida — the city where Mar-a-Lago is — after a short stop in his home city. That trip cost a total of $3.6 million, according to a report from the US Government Accountability Office. Assuming that Mr Trump’s travels to Florida are about the same as that Obama trip — granted, it’s hard to say with any certainty that they are as costs change depending on specific travel requirements — the president has incurred roughly $25 million in expenses, according to a tally maintained by the American Progress Action Fund.

Obama's travel expenses were $97m over 8 years. Trump is already at $20m on Mar-a-Lago trips alone

The guy is a billionaire. Do you really think he is using tax money? LoL.

What did he do with his last quarterly salary again?

Pick pick pick.

You are accomplishing nothing aside from putting off an aura of impotent rage. Just sayin'

Ya, I don't think Trump is footing the bill for Air Force One, the Secret Service, and all the other cost that goes into his golf trips, but if you have proof otherwise please share.

Given that he's as entitled as Chris Christie, the man who decided to go sunbathe on beaches he'd branded off-limits to everyone else, yes. It's 100% reasonable to assume that Trump used taxpayers' money.

You tell us as you've obviously seen his tax returns...

Pick pick pick.

Is that what you call it when people demand that the President of the United States be held to the same standard of criticism that he subjected his predecessor to for years?

You're projecting quite strongly. Trump ripped on Obama for playing golf but when someone starts pointing out Trump's an utter hypocrite on the subject you get all uppity.

Absolutely.

Remember: we're talking about the same person who, when he found out that his son was letting an annual fundraiser for a children's hospital happen at a Trump golf course for free, flipped out and insisted that the charitable foundation be charged:

But in 2011, things took a turn. Costs for Eric Trump’s tournament jumped from $46,000 to $142,000, according to the foundation’s IRS filings. Why would the price of the tournament suddenly triple in one year? “In the early years, they weren’t being billed [for the club]–the bills would just disappear,” says Ian Gillule, who served as membership and marketing director at Trump National Westchester during two stints from 2006 to 2015 and witnessed how Donald Trump reacted to the tournament’s economics. “Mr. Trump had a cow. He flipped. He was like, ‘We’re donating all of this stuff, and there’s no paper trail? No credit?’ And he went nuts. He said, ‘I don’t care if it’s my son or not–everybody gets billed.’ ”

I'm tired not just of the Hypocrite in Chief but the rest of the Hypocrite Party who foamed at the mouth because President Obama had the gall to keep breathing but now keep silent when President Trump does the same bloody thing because, you know, it's one of us doing it not one of them.

 

[Sunstone]

Today, his 167th day in office, is the 36th day he's spent golfing.

In other words, our beloved Hypocrite-in-Chief has spent about one-fifth of his time in office golfing.

 

[whirlingmerc]

Obama went on vacations at really odd crisis times... Trump is probably better in that regard

Red herring.

Typical lib, only remembering 'facts' that fit your narrative. He gave it all back, as a donation to the parks Dept.

Is that what you call it when people demand that the President of the United States be held to the same standard of criticism that he subjected his predecessor to for years?

No, that's what I call incessant whining about something you have no power to change. And even if you did have such power, I doubt it would manifest by whining to strangers on the internet.

You're projecting quite strongly. Trump ripped on Obama for playing golf but when someone starts pointing out Trump's an utter hypocrite on the subject you get all uppity.

I am projecting my bitterness towards trump? LOL

If that is the case I am projecting quite strongly indeed!

Ya, I'm sure he takes af1 everywhere he goes. And here's a factoid. Those SS men are on payroll no matter what. It isn't like they are hiring new ones every time he goes golfing.

You libs and your 'logic' lol

I think he's almost forced to take AF1 due to security and national interest reasons.
