[QUOTE="RobGMN, post: 8922210, member: 683408"] Only a "deranged" person would think $101 million on golf in 14 months is a ridiculous use of taxpayer money. Even more "deranged" to call it emoluments when he is paying himself to be there. [ATTACH type="full" width="612px"]71184[/ATTACH] Donald Trump has spent at least [URL='https://www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-golf-100-million_n_69c6e1dde4b041837420f5ad']$101.2 million (£78.1 million) of taxpayer money[/URL] on golf trips in just over 14 months, while American households face fuel bills not seen in years. The figure, calculated by HuffPost from a[URL='https://www.gao.gov/assets/gao-19-178.pdf'] 2019 Government Accountability Office report[/URL] on presidential travel costs, reflects travel and security expenses incurred since Trump's return to the White House on 20 January 2025.
