Trump's Golfing Trips Have
Cost Taxpayers $102 Million During his campaign for president, Trump
vowed he would never golf if elected and often
criticized Obama for the amount he played. Donald Trump,
via ‘Huffpost’ According to Huffpost, Trump has spent a total
of more than $102 million in tax
payer’s money on his golfing habits. $81 million has been spent on
two dozen trips to Florida, $17 million
on 15 trips to New Jersey, $1 million on Los Angeles trips and at least
$3 million on a two-day trip to Scotland. Most recently, the White House
announced Trump will be traveling to
Ireland to visit his golf resort in Doonbeg. Jordan Libowitz of Citizens for Responsibly
and Ethics in Washington believes Trump’s
outing to be troubling on a deeper level. Because most of Trump’s visits are to
his own properties, he is essentially
putting money into his own pocket. Jordan Libowitz,
