Donald Trump’s Scotland golf trip comes at incredible cost to U.S. taxpayers


. . . Trump spent an estimated $151 million of taxpayer money golfing across his first term [and] is well on his way to blowing that total out of the water . . .

. . . According to the website DidTrumpGolfToday.com, the president has played golf on 23.4% of the days thus far in his second term heading into his Scotland stay. . . .

“He’s using the presidency to market his golf courses,” Richard Painter, the top ethics lawyer in George W. Bush’s second-term White House told HuffPost.

If this sounds incredibly stupid, that’s because it is.



OVERHEARD

“You may not be the dumbest guy in the world, but you’d better hope he doesn’t die.”



May I suggest you share today’s first item — the Bernie Sanders clip — on Truth Social as part of your DIS-dis-information campaign?  “Hey guys.  How should I respond to this socialist crap?”

Quote of the Day

"To the BELOVED REPUBLIC under whose equal laws I am made the peer of any man, although denied political equality by my native land, I dedicate this book with an intensity of gratitude and admiration which the native-born citizen can neither feel nor understand."

Dedication to Andrew Carnegie's Triumphant Democracy (Scribner's, 1886)
