Never A Hole In One.

       I remember back a few years when Obama was playing too much golf, in the opinion of Trump. Actually, Obama played 333 times in his eight year presidency. At the time, President Trump found fault with his playing too much golf. He spends too much of the peoples money playing golf.  Fast forward to these days and we find that our President Trump is on track to play more than twice as much golf as President Obama.
       But, not to worry, he's playing at his own golf courses. Of course the people are still paying for it. The difference is that he's pocketing the money. So far, just the golf cart costs to Americans is $300,675 according to an article in the National Memo. Of course some of those golf trips are strictly business. Like when he golfs with sports athletes. Now the White House won't reveal how often Trump plays, but a good guess is that it's about 25% of the time.
       One of the odd things is that you don't hear anyone complaining much about how much he's spending on golf. Probably because people assume he golfs for free at his own clubs. Maybe he does, but his entourage doesn't. And that includes his secret service guards. And remember, he's on track to play 745 days of golf, if he were to serve a full eight years in office. Imagine the costs to us.
       If he mocked Obama for all the time he spent on a golf course, just think how much mocking Trump would be entitled to. We could spend a lot of time complaining about Trump's golfing. But actually, I think its probably the best thing for the country. Maybe we should suggest that he spend twice as much time on the courses. Or even three times as often. Heck, why not all the time?
