    Maybe the solution here is leisure trips ...a cap on them. For example, in Canada, your first year in @ job you receive 10 days off work. So two weeks including weekends. What if this rule applied to presidents? So they only get 10 days of leisure trips, after five years, they get three weeks per year. Be like the rest of us who schlep.

    Like i said, just because its hyped because its Trump doesn't mean it isn't dubious. If the whole thing is fake news than it would be a different thing.

    No, not true. It only seems like that because too many people believe it. And your smiley seems misplaced, like its good Eric has this conviction. In my country both supporters and opposers of such a president (prime minister) would object and take issue with such a spending of tax money for a private event. It's just ridicilous! If its (even half) true.

    Apparently, because you don’t live hear in America and truly don’t know what’s going on, other than what you’re getting from media sources, you do not see and feel these things. Comparing what’s going on in your country and what goes on here? Not even close, Asmo.

    Why can't we compare? I'm not saying its the same, that's actually why i gave the example. It doesn't have to be like this. If enough citizens really want something like this (president spending too much tax money on private party) and would actually act upon that want, stuff like this can be changed. It's not a change you as a country in your current position can make in a day though.
    That you're powerless on such matters now is because too many Americans believe this and act on that belief. I wanna add that i don't mean to toot my own country's horn by saying the majority would take issue with it here. Here too change regularly doesn't happen because people insist it's hopeless.

    Another thing is that this number is all speculative. In February 2013, Obama took a leisure trip for 4 days which cost tax payers 3.6 million. They, the media base each number for trump leisure time based on this bar set from what I can gather.

    It doesn’t have to be that way, but it is. Certain elites will not EVER be held accountable for their actions. Been going on for decades.

    The elite had to adapt to a majority of ordinary citizens in the past (also in your country) and that can and will happen again (perhaps not in your country :p).

    Where do you get that shit from? Golf news.net, no more a trusted source than golf news.net

    Don't you think he'd be in better shape if he played golf 100 times a year?

    From golf news.net

    "Mr. Trump has reportedly been on the grounds of his golf courses or played golf elsewhere 261 times since becoming President, and that's as of Feb. 2, 2020."

    Been on the grounds of...means what exactly? He has a golf course 20 miles from the white house

    Doesn't this happen in any government though, I mean no matter what your government is doing, they aren't paying out of their own pocket. You're wearing clown shoes and walking to the circus if you think otherwise.

    For interest I just looked up some info on the Queen and no surprise at all, Vlad here pays the Queen to breathe air too.

    Maybe it's the nasty partys fault. LOLOLOLOLOLOL

    I remember back when it was Turnbull instead of ScoMo. Turnbull was the second highest paid world leader after Trump if Trump was to take a salary. So Turnbull was the highest paid world leader that actually got paid. And I doubt ScoMo gave himself a pay cut

    And we have a home brand air force One type thing now, well, a converted C130 that probably doesn't have a toilet, but it's supposed to be to fly the PM around in

    Still, 25 million vs 340 million people. I'm sure per Capita ScoMo costs us more than Trump costs them

    I would be quite happy if she and the rest of her brood stopped breathing and then we could hold an election for a President and at the same time get rid of the antiquainted House of Lords too.

    But instead you'll just pay her to breathe air and rag on someone else's problem instead

    OK cool.

    Contrary to popular belief, ranting and raving on HF doesn't actually attribute to any solution.
