Trump, "I will rarely leave the White House"

In the past, Trump has been sharply critical of the costs of presidential travel. He lambasted President Obama on Twitter for millions of dollars of "unbelievable!" travel expenses –- and suggested he spent more time golfing and campaigning than working for the American people.

In 2015, Trump went so far as to publicly pledge that he would "rarely leave the White House because there’s so much work to be done," The Hill reported. But so far, Trump has shown no indication he’s looking to cut down on his own presidential travel.

The Trump administration won’t provide dollar figures for the initial trips to Florida, but one presidential trip to the Palm Beach area in 2013 cost taxpayers around $3 million dollars, according to a Government Accountability Office (GAO) estimate from 2016

The New York City Police Department says it spends $500,000 a day just to protect the president’s midtown residence at Trump Tower.

Maybe he can donate his salary toward travel and golf.

    You can bet Gary Johnson would never load the taxpayer with such expense as He appeared that He would have truly feared to leave the White House.

    Math is hard

    It costs 3 million to go to his own house in Florida

    Obama would go to Martha's Vinyard and Hawaii among other trips and totaled 11 million?

    Critical thinking guys. Try it

    Lol, okay, you let the clown that obsessed over Obama's every move for eight years know that he's drastically underestimated the cost.

    Breitbart reports the same.

    As does Fox News.

    Fill them in on what you know, I'm sure they'd love to froth at the mouth some more.

    "President-elect Trump can immediately save taxpayers money by reforming presidential travel," Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton said.

    Right. When are those death panels arriving anyway? At least government figures are accurate again.

    So we're just taking Tommy's bullshit at face value?

    http://fortune.com/2017/02/22/trump-security-mar-a-lago-cost-taxpayers/

    "The President’s three trips to his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida have already cost the federal treasury some $10 million. At this rate, the report says, travel and security for Trump and his family could run up a bill in the hundreds of millions of dollars by the end of his term."

    That doesn't even take into account the $500,000/day we are paying for Melania and Baron to stay in NYC instead of the White House.

    The Daily Wire and Breitbart have Obama's total over all 8 years between $85 and $96 million. So even those fucktards have his 8 year total at a fraction of what Trump is projected to spend...in a few months.

    We done here???

    She's on vacation from the WH every day to the tune of $500,000/day.

    Another lazy immigrant if you ask me. Typical.
    Just like Obama then?

    So Obama now did nothing but vacation the whole time? Or he turned us into a communism? Just need to know which narrative you are trying to push.
