What I want to know is why anyone should give a shit about the President playing golf. Most of the expense is the Presidential security that all Presidents get and that would be the case regardless of who was President. Now if someone wants to make the argument that maybe Presidents don't need 102 million (which in the federal budget is pocket change) worth of security then I'd be willing to hear that argument.
Since the Orange One made a Federal case whining about Obama's golf outings, it's on him. Bitch to him.
True enough. Here's what gets me though. Why can't the lamestream media do at least something right and get the hypocrisy up front and center. Just start and yes start the newscast or how about a headline stating. "Trump bogeys on the gold course by exceeding even Obama's golf expenses by a drive shot." Digital media can just play clips of Trump's golf outing, A Trump campaign shot where he bitches about Obama, a big red screen with black letters with the relevant facts and figures, cycle this with different Trump campaign bitch session, a different clip of Trump's golf outing, red sign, with sufficient repeats to ensure the message get across. <- Some focus groups would help tune up the iterations/exact content. Of course, some Republicans will bitch that the final product is a political campaign. It isn't to Rags though. The "story" is actually news since Trump was the one who bitched about it probably on Twatter, so that's the news. The clips of Trump bitching are the back story to provide context. The red sign is a new innovation. It ties everything together in a nice tidy bundle. I mean, the red sign is key since it simply lays out the facts in red and black, which makes the communication very clear. The colors are also key. Those are the colors that make folks angry. Those colors bring forth visions of ants and snakes.
