  1. I bet he charges himself (aka us) for green fees. Fuck this guy.

  2. Every minute he’s golfing, he’s not signing executive orders or otherwise fucking the country wholesale. Let him golf as much as he wants.

  3. B-but Obama took Michelle to a restaurant on their anniversary once!

    (this was an actual scandal back then, to do this while having security paid by tax dollars)

  4. I have never understood… why does golfing cost this much?

  5. They are pushing that we have to feel the pain to have gain. But he is spending millions on a Hobbie. WTF.

  6. Hear me out: Trump should still go golfing, just without the security.

    What do you mean this might have unintended consequences?!

  7. Dang…if only there was a 4 year period between his first presidency and now wherein a Democrat occupied the White House, and said Democrat was the ballsy go-getter type who would have created a special task force – TAX DODGE or the like – that spent the entire 4 years analyzing and publishing data about all the ways this fucking orange clown ripped us off.

    I know, I shouldn’t complain. We did get some half assed lawsuits file too late to make any difference.

  8. Waste fraud and abuse should be the title of Trumps biography

  9. There should be a tracker only for this, including the superBowl and Nascar event cost. For him and Musk, to know how much money they waste

  10. DOGE is really cutting that wasteful spending…

  11. He’s also been ruining the country’s reputation, infrastructure and aligning with dictators. But ya, they won’t get that money back either.

  12. At this rate, assuming 18.2m every 7 weeks, which were actually just shy of, Trump will cost taxpayers 540m by the end of his 2nd term. Which is all going into his courses, his pockets. Who knows what the 3rd term could cost.

  13. Where’s all the “we’re cutting government waste” bots?

  14. Racking up those wins , his voters love seeing him waste their money.

  15. Do the press EVER call him out on why he’s golfing every fucking weekend?

  16. I don’t know how much more hate my heart can hold. Its not healthy.

  17. His message is he wants to get out waste from the government but he’s spending more on vacations and golfing with taxpayer money than he’s cutting with unlawful cancellations of contracts and firing

  18. I can’t believe we’re back here. This stupid fucking timeline.

  19. Elon, Elon I found some of the waste of tax payers dollars.

  20. It makes me so happy as a Montanan to see the federal government slash our environmental centers to save $2.7M and $6M in university grants to save “waste” meanwhile the President spends several times that to go the Super Bowl and play golf.

  21. So $10 million more than the “trans mice” experiments. Got it.

  22. Elon Musk should fire this guy for waste and also based on 5 things he’s done every week.

  23. For context, that is roughly the entire annual salary of about 171 government employees (based on a reported average salary of $106,462). If we average his 48 day golfing total of 18.2 million, that $379,166 per day, or about 3 and a half federal workers’ annual salary. (Obviously, he’s not playing golf EVERY day, but this spreads his golf day expenses across every day, including non-golf days).

    So if he continues golfing at this pace, he will spend $138,395,590 per year on golf outings. So, in order to pay for one man to golf, DOGE will need to fire **1,300** government employees. That’s 1,300 hardworking Americans losing their income just so some fat asshole can play golf instead of doing his job. But by all means, let’s attack *thousands* of dollars being spent on a scientific study that sounds like it might be “woke.”

    Absolutely fuck all these people.

  24. He is treating Presidency as his fucking retirement plan.

    Come on, cholesterol

  25. Hey DOGE, we’ve found some government waste for you to cut!

  26. And all spent at his properties! Fucking thieving grifter, rapist and felon!

  27. At what point do Americans just stop paying federal taxes? We’re losing social security, medicaid/care, education, consumer protections, environmental protections, and so on. What exactly are we getting by paying federal taxes?

  28. It is exhausting watching people make the same ineffective criticisms of Trump from the first term and expect them to actually work this term.

    Republicans and their voters don’t care about government efficiency, fiscal responsibility, decorum, or any of that. They live in a fantasy world where they’re just happy to have grifters tell them they’re hurting people.

  29. Government trying to cut fraud waste and abuse and we have this shit. Fucking clown show
