You obviously do as you compared brought it up from former presidents? Because it’s on *tax payer dime* 

if he’s played twice as much in half the time at his own resort you don’t see that as a problem?

Sure, he's a hypocrite. But I think most people overestimate what our presidents do. All of them. They have scores of underlings that do the real work. A president is more of a facade. If our presidents truly ran our country we'd all be dead. I'd much rather that goofball play golf than make decisions about COVID, lol. Let the real team make choices. As for "tax payers money", it's not costing you next to anything. Everyone should stop using that line.

It absolutely costs tax money and resources every time he plays golf or his son takes a trip to go hunting an exotic deer. Someone has to pay for all the food, room, room service, SS salaries, police escorts, extra security. That poo adds up dude.

This moron says nobody cares yet he is the one who broached the subject and talks constantly about it. #HuddleLogic

As I said a few posts back, if we could only figure out how to get Congress to go with Trump now, the country would be in better shape

It could not be captains choice tournament as they would all want to be captain, well, because they deserve it.

You are right, people supporting Trump.  He should be playing golf--living a good life---the US represents 30% of the COVID-19 cases in the world, and only 4% of the population, and he pats himself on the back---encourages people to live their lives again because he is willing to risk those lives to stimulate the economy to get him re-elected.  He WANTS to project a "return to normalcy".   And if he were not playing golf, he might be attacking 60% of the nation by endorsing "white power" videos and plastering pictures of people removing statues...Important stuff like that--requires technology.  He does not need to be in his office to publicly sanction Russia for putting out bounties on US Soldiers--he can ignore that, and focus his attention on white morons with Trump shirts on Golf carts shouting "White Power."

I could Google it. But has anyone ever done the stats to see how much it costs each person individually? 328.2 million in the US. I'd hope they all pay taxes. SO ... break it down. How much does all that stuff cost ... me. I'm not arguing that stuff doesn't get paid by us, I'm saying it's miniscule. Sort of like when someone gets mad at a cop: I PAY YOUR SALARY!

Once again, the thread is getting derailed by the same guy.

Nobody would care if Trump and his supporters hadn't attacked Obama over it relentlessly.  It's not hard to understand.

Meanwhile, in actual coronavirus news, California reinstitutes stay at home order after rise in new cases.

I don't agree with this. IMO, this is not the right approach given what we now know about this virus. Masks and social distancing is the right way to go.

It sounded like that one county was too far gone. They needed to shut it down.

Meanwhile, mask usage in Charlotte is way up. Thanks Gov Cooper!

Common sense can triumph. Simple truthful information is what people need and understand most. Shutdowns need to be controlled by counties/cities rather than a blanket code for an entire state. Too bad we didn't do this from the beginning.
