Taxpayers’ Tab for Donald Trump’s Golf Habit Crosses $100 million

Orange Felon is the most selfish creature I have ever seen.

1/10th of a Billion dollars. On f****** golf. Found a stream of that waste, fraud, and abuse, y’all.

Please pass a law capping this kind of spending to a reasonable level. Something like 1/10th of this. The is entitlement, greed and selfishness on a grand scale. All while Americans are suffering. The shame!

"I'm going to be working for you. I'm not going to have time to play golf." -DJT

$100M this term. It was $150M last time. He’s also added how many $T to the national debt? We’re 100% in a depression (it’s when a recession lasts longer than 2 years)

​The true Art of the Deal was figuring out how to make the American middle class pay $100 million to play golf at your own house.

Not to worry, compared to all the other money he has stolen thats almost a rounding error

https://didtrumpgolftoday.com/ Its more than that based on pre covid numbers. This is always my go to when suckers say he donated his salary.

God forbid a single mother get food stamps

It's not about playing golf. He's moving money from the U.S. taxpayer's account through his business account and into his personal account.

It’s always difficult for me to imagine anyone who lives and thinks like this: completely oblivious to the waste and damage they inflict on everything. One could argue that these aren’t actually expenses, because these government workers would still be getting paid. But here’s an interesting part: Trump charges the Secret Service to stay at his golf resorts every time he stays- and they don’t get a d*******. That’s real money that leaves the nation and goes straight into his personal pocket. Money that didn’t go to your local schools or roads or fire department or roads or anything. Money that went to maintaining and army of people to service one man’s playtime. But god forbid a dirt poor family on SNAP buy a birthday cake for their child. That’s  waste in a Republican’s eyes. This is how wealthy Americans see the world. This country cannot sustain these kinds of people.

Forget funding SNAP. honestly f those hungry children. Trump needs to golf. 100 million on golfing. That your taxes paid for

100 million to play on his OWN golf courses, lol.

It is the most predictable 2026 move possible. The President bypasses Congress to initiate "Surgical Strikes" in Iran, gas prices jump 40 cents overnight despite domestic reserves being at 90%, and CEOs start blaming "Geopolitical Instability" while they buy back billions in stock. The Dems are right to call for prosecutions—this isn't just "The Invisible Hand of the Market," it’s a Coordinated Cash Grab. You can't start a war and then let your biggest donors use the smoke as a screen to pick the pockets of every American at the pump.

hE dOn'T tAkE a PaYcHeCk.

His first term cost us over $150 million, and he is going to double it in his second.

Glad our tax dollars are allowing this pedophile to line his own pockets by golfing at his own clubs, charging secret service for staying at his hotel, meals, etc. The corruption is so flagrant and Republicans are TOTALLY cool with it

how is playing one of the most boring sports on the planet so expensive?

F*** this fatass

Trump is spending money on useless things. Instead of using that money to help the poorest people.

It’s okay because he donates his presidential salary, all 400k a year, so only 99.6 million is from the tax payer not a selfish person at all

Doesn't a large amount of that money end up in Trump's pockets? I know at Mar-a-Lago they charge secret service for everything from golf cart rental to food for the agents.

Out of curiosity I had to look up how much Obama spent on golf because you know it would be the rights first go-to counter argument. It was $89 million *throughout the entirety of his 8 years as President;* $11 million a year. Trump has spent 10x Obama’s annual cost in just over one year.

And he still sucks at golf.

Republican voters don't care about this as long as transgender people get hell and immigrants are demonized. If they cared about where the money went they would not be republican.

“But but he doesn’t take a salary” smh maga morons

I guess people should have actually voted for Harris rather than looking for any reason they could come up with to sit out the election. It's like some people intentionally try to screw things up so they can spend the next 4 years bitching about how screwed up things are.

Meanwhile over 100K DHS employees haven’t been paid in 2 months

MAGA: But he doesn't get paid to be President! He does not collect a paycheck. Everyone else with half a brain stem: That's $100 million of tax dollars money going to his companies. Sure is a hell of a lot more than $400,000 yearly salary.

Adding 5 trillion to the debt in a year should have economy on fire, instead economy is on fire.

And it's only at the golf course/clubs he owns.

This is why trump’s ‘but I won’t take a salary’ bluster was ridiculous when he first said it. And he’s **not even good at golf**.

Obama used to golf on military bases to lower costs. Trump purposefully golfs at his own courses to get money. 

Mind you, that money goes directly to his pockets while he plays at courses he owns

It's wild (not really) the tea-party, small government libertarians are perfectly okay with Trump bankrupting the American people faster than any democrat could even dream of.

Tax all of the red districts who consistently voted for that idiot and let them shoulder the burden. Add it to the long list of reparations they owe every other American for the mess they created.

Republicans used to slam Obama on this, well I guess when their God does it, it’s not a problem. Drumpf has totally pandered to the base American instinct.

Anybody got the clip from his 2020 campaign? In response to a reporter it goes something like this: Golfing? No, I won’t be golfing. I’ll be too busy working to go golfing.

Key quotes and criticisms from Donald Trump regarding previous presidents golfing include: On Obama's work ethic: "We had to tell Obama, 'You're not supposed to be playing golf... You have a country that's falling apart'". On time management: "I’m going to be working for you, I’m not going to have time to play golf". On the optics of golfing: Trump criticized Obama for "once even teeing off immediately after announcing the gruesome death of a great young man by ISIS!". On his own hypothetical golf habits: "If I win I may never see my property – I may never see these places again... I just want to stay in the White House and work my ass off". On Obama's frequency: "Can you believe that, with all of the problems and difficulties facing the U.S., President Obama spent the day playing golf".

If i was president, id spend most of my time in the White House with occasional trip to Camp David for a break. The amount of effort by so many people just to move him around in AF1 just to play golf! Its nit like he works long hard stressful hours

100M just for one fat f*** to golf.

Don't forget he's playing golf at his own properties, so this money is profit for his company.

This is the same guy that was whining about Obama spending too much time golfing. Golfing that he mostly did on golf courts own and operated by US military bases. Thus no extra fees or secuirty measures needed. Meanwhile Trump has almost exclusively used his own golf courses, billing the US government for his trips. The guy that said he wouldn't get time to golf. As he would be too busy working. Obama's 8 years of golfing and Hawaii trips over 8 years? [They cost a total of 85 million USD](http://afr.com/world/north-america/barack-obamas-8years-of-golf-hawaii-vacations-costs-taxpayers-us85-million-20161229-gtj4bi). Trump's golfing alone has surpassed that. It does not include the next 2.,5, nor holiday trips he's taking by himself. Not counting all the other channels he's used to milk the US federal and state budgets, while selling US power/reputation/service and pocketing it himself. There's honestly few leaders that matches his level of corruption. Most of them having been slained by angered mobs.

Jesus Christ and I’m over here struggling to buy food WHAT THE F***

Don’t forget they are on his properties, so all the money spent to house and feed security and staff go right into his pocket

As a comparison Obama spent around $90M over 8 years while Trump is on track to spend $300M just in his second term which doesn't include the first 4 years at $150M

> his 110th day on a golf course that he owns That taxpayer money is going directly into his own accounts as he never divested himself of his business holdings in a flagrant violation of the Domestic Emoluments clause in the Constitution, and is enriching himself by charging exorbitant rates for every single member of his security and entourage who has to stay on his properties for these trips too. Just blatant, flagrant criminality.

Why are we paying for his hobbies? You should only get 2 visits home a month paid by tax payers, after that is on Trump to pay.

Does he even enjoy golf? Is he a good player? Or is this just a money laundering scheme?

https://trumpgolftrack.com/ Use this to see how many day he been golfing

Send Joe Flaherty out there with a Volkswagen Beetle

And he’s not even remotely good at golf.

Fiscally responsible bullshit. Don’t ever give any republicans any value when they say they’re worried about fiscal responsibility. The trump presidency has been the most wasteful, harmful spending in American history. These two faced assholes have zero merit to any claim they ever make

With the amount he plays, you'd think he wouldn't need to cheat at golf.

100 million is “Trump change”

The overwhelming sentiment among the majority of white voters across all three elections: 'At what point do you realize we DGAF? We admire Trump because he embodies the qualities we aspire to possess. Trump takes delight in the harsh treatment directed at LGBTQ individuals, people of color, and anyone else who isn't with us. A sentiment that resonates with us as well. While you may continue your protests and vocalize your dissent, the reality is that when it truly mattered, we turned out on November 5th, while you did not. Prepare for the ongoing cruelty and deportations. We face over three more years of beatings and confinement, and we are just at the beginning. Among those who voted, the majority of white men and white women voted for a racist, fascist, sexist, war-mongering kid rapist and kid killer in 2016, 2020, and 2024. *It was never about the price of eggs or gas.*

He’s not taking a salary, so it’s all good

How much have taxpayers paid for all the lawsuits him and his administration have caused?

MAGAs will defend the. He’s gotta relax after all his bombings, right?

The party of fiscal responsibility... This should include both terms to show the real effect.

drop in the bucket compared to cost of billion dollar a day illegal war, questionable deportations of American citizens by 75 billion dollar ICE brown-shirts, and increased spending of tariff funds despite being levied illegally by President overstepping his authority. Wait till Democrats ever come back to power and hear MAGA scream about this.

Wait where are the idiots that say but he doesn’t take a salary

Republicans voted for this. He also sleeps until 11am and only works like 2 hours a day. 

Maybe they should have DOGE'd the golf budget may have actually found waste and abuse...

Everything about this man is simply engineered to steal as much resources as possible from the public. It is a microcosm of what the rich do but much more nakedly and out in the open. I hope to god that this man's habits become tied up in the public's memory for a very long time so we can see the pattern of all the other rich people and prosecute accordingly.

Hey Guys calm down. He switched the pens in the White House to save money. We’re all good. Nothing to worry about. 👍got to be net positive right.

Don't need to take a salary when you never have to pay for anything yourself.

His supporters will point out how altruistic and selfless this man is because he foregoes his Presidential salary, and since they cannot do basic math they honestly believe $400,000 per year offsets the multi-millions per year his golfing, family and friends secret service details (especially forced to stay at his properties for a price), etc. And none of that includes the periphery expenses he incurs such as retrofitting a gift plane from another country to make it safe for a President (which is somehow only him btw) even while another Airforce One was already being built and paid for. Dumbest con man in the world found the most grift-able followers he could ever wish to find.

That’s at least one Kristi Noem commercial.

With his personal wealth having increased by a supposed $3billion so far this term, maybe he could f****** pay for his own golf? Eh, fiscal "conservatives"??

Someone should suggest to him supporting a new amendment to the constintution that can even be called the Trump amendment. It would forever outlaw every single loophole, gentlemen's contract or whatever that has allowed this to happen to the country, a fix it for all the shit that has happened since 2016. Imagine how hard that would be for him to ignore, his name forever written into the constitution, that would ever prevent another him from happening, an exclusive club of one that nobody could ever join. I bet he would go for it, a pull the ladder up after I climbed it solution.

That's actually insane.

$100M+ for this idiot to kick a ball around

bUt hE dOSnT ACcEpT a sALArY

Taxpayers tab for moral injury? Beyond reckoning. Openly corrupt, harmful, unfit, cruel. Disillusionment at best. A stain.

Lucky DOGE found all that waste…

Who's golf courses is he golfing at? His own?

Triple charging Secret Service rooms still I imagine.

We pay for an orange, pedo, rapist, fascist to not work and cheat at golf. Thanks, America.

Putting tariffs on his course would offset some of those cost.

If the average WW2 veteran were reincarnated to their living room couch and the TV is playing a montage of Trump's hits from asking Russia to help him in the debate with HRC, to his Normandy statement to Gen Kelly about how only losers would serve, to J6 rally and insurrection, etc...not that the GOP actually gives a shit about veterans or government service. 

Fat useless sack of shit

So how big is his diaper bill?

But, he doesn’t take a salary! /s

Selfies Trump

All Trump does is embezzle tax payer money and nags voters know it

Can golf dislodge a nice chunk of arterial plaque?

So No money for universal healthcare though…..cool

Open theft in public faces

$100 million for playing golf? Where is that money actually going? He’s fat as shit, so it’s not like he’s playing ALOT of golf 🤷🏻‍♂️

As much as him finding a way to monetize his leisure at our expense disgusts me, I’d much rather have him golfing than working, and far away from deciding anything with consequences for the rest of the world.

That's chump change considering all the other grifts he has done, market manipulations, etc. and also the damage to the US economy with his tariffs and war.

That's a lot of healthcare for people who can't afford :(

Failed. Nation. This if what a failed nation hold like. It’s time we recognize it, let the system collapse, and start from scratch with a better system of government.

I promise when I run for president, I will never play a single round of golf.

[Meanwhile](https://i.imgur.com/9IljoGR.jpeg)

Still no solutions. 

Waste fraud and abuse.

Wait till you find out the tab for all his other grifts.

I wonder if “Golf” is just code for him f****** kids in a shed at Mar a Lago while the secret service keeps watch

Is this making America great?

how does one play golf for 100 million? does it involve coke and hookers?

Loved landing at PBI this morning and seeing Air Force One. Golf is more important than war apparently.
