Yep...late start here too. I’m at my sister-in-law’s at the moment. Will be leaving in a while to drive to the western part of the state. My cousin passed in February, and I’d promised his wife at the funeral, that I’d be back to visit once the weather got good. I’ll be staying there until Tuesday, then heading home.

From Newsweak so it’s got to be a conservative estimate:

“OBAMA ADMINISTRATION TRAVEL COST $114 MILLION”

$114,000,000/96 months = $1.18 million/mo.

Trump at $17 million for 16 months = $1.06 million/mo.

Trump works on his time away from the WH unlike Obama’s philandering.

Yes, they forgot to throw in all of barry and michelle’s trips to Hawaii, to florida to play golf with a pro, to Italy, etc.

They also forgot to mention the fact that Trump, Melania, and Ivanka serve with NO SALARY.

I’m sure Trump would take his own 757 to Maralogo, but security won’t allow it.

Bush traveled to his home, in Texas, Elder Bush to Maine, Clinton to hot dates, and Obama to golf games.

So they can all shut up. The President’s travels and expense are all budgeted, and available to the president.

Mueller’s expenses are made up of nonsense, producing nothing.

Correct, if the Hill has any credibility they’ll report on Obama’s extravagant vacations to Hawaii, Martha’s Vineyard, , Michelle taking the family & 40 of her pals around the world,...Trump owns his property, not a leach like the Clintons & Obamas....I won’t hold my breath...

“No complaints with all the trips on seperate planes and taking others, reserving complete floors in hotel..
By obama and wife and entourage...”

Even dragging along Granny Robinson. The total of personal travel expenses for the Obama tribe must be staggering!

While we’re at it, shall we total up San Fran Nan’s free military plane rides, including transporting a military jet to another airbase to save her highness fifteen minutes? And the $100,000 bar tab?

There’s your proof that not one of these imbeciles have ever had real, grown up jobs. They have no clue how much actual, legitimate business in America is conducted on the dang golf course. Any businessman with more than thirty minutes of experience knows this.

Trump is making money, cutting regs, reducing Fed payroll by $2 billion, etc.

Mueller produces crap.

Trump had to leave the White House because Obama delayed security renovations until after Trump took office:

http://www.ibtimes.com/donald-trump-wont-work-oval-office-white-house-renovations-could-take-year-according-2447566

While speaking with Fox News’ “Happening Now” Wednesday, Karl Rove, the deputy chief of staff for former President George W. Bush, said it may be a year before Trump can work from the Oval Office due to security renovations.

Rove alleged current President Barack Obama was initially supposed to direct the upgrades on the room in which most presidents operate during their tenure. However, Obama refused and decided to pass the job to his successor.

“President Obama could have told the Secret Service, ‘I know you want to modernize the Oval Office with security enhancements — literally strip it down to the bare walls and build it back up so we’ve got bulletproof glass and so forth and so on, security arrangements in it, in my last year in office,’ but instead he said, ‘Why don’t you do that [with] whoever comes next,’” Rove said in the clip surfaced by the New York Post.

Oh, so Trump has spent more time IN HIS OWN HOME than Mueller has in a taxpayer provided office?!

Ehrmagerd!

We’ve all spent more time in the bathroom than the Mueller Witch Hunt and produced the same results.

The difference?

We get to flush it.

But, return on investment. Mueller made us a laughing stock by chasing 10 Russians and can’t back it up. POTUS is ending the Korean War and cutting our taxes.

Good thing POTUS Trump doesn’t have a Dog like the Obama’s do.

That would require an additional Airplane.
