CNN EXPOSES Trump For Golf & Mar a Lago Trips After Promising He Would Never Go On Vacation

Well CNN in this Youtube vid seems to be correct here, Trump said one thing on the campaign trail and now is doing another.

Yes, it is amazing that CNN is finally covering presidential vacation costs.

But two important distinctions, Trump is actually visiting his real home from his temporary White House residence. The 2nd is that if Trump were not president he could still do the same thing.

One point I would like CNN to answer is how much is Trump charging the GVT (e.g., Secret Service) to stay at Mar A Largo?

**********************************************

Answer:

Something that was revealed during the last Presidency about the WH few seem to know much about. The POSTUS put off security renovations until he left the WH. It was thought to be Trump would not be able to stay in the WH during the first year of his Presidency. The trips to Mar A Largo are due to these security renovations. Having him in the WH at all is impressive given the WH has construction going on. 171 posted on 4/16/2017, 10:10:52 AM by zaxtres

A pragmatic reason for a detail is to prevent the kidnapping and interrogation of ex-POTUSes for state secrets. In this case, ValJar should have the detail. Zero just read about it in the papers.

I love it when freepers put up a stupid post and then draw themselves up to their full height and start mentioning their military service or their advanced employment positions lol! As if that mitigates the stupid post.

I’m not the only one giving you hell. In fact, your first post to me said that quite frankly. You deserve it.

Is ValJar still living within the new DC residence? Then she found her protection. Oh that I would live long enough to finally read the books about what I really already know must have happened.

Thanks, good to have a friendly response.

I have been very impressed with Trump, his meeting with the people (e.g., miners, truckers, police, etc.) are not pure political genius, they are the way to actually try to fix the issues.

I would bet that Trump has the 80% solution before the meeting, but is looking for those “golden nuggets” to really make an impact.

Why does he go to south, kind of reminds me that sometimes after finishing a very tough week I just needed a beer. Since Trump doesn’t drink he goes to Florida and golfs.

Great post, I’ve noticed the euphemistically “prince and princess” title used for the Kirshners and it is beginning to reek of anti Sematism.

Yet the Secret Service (really we, the taxpayer) must now pay rent to the Clintons for allowing the Secret Service to house agents on the Clinton estate.

Beat me to it!

“Your mistake is the presumption that his trips to Mar a Lqgo are vacations. It’s also his home. Regardless of what he said on “the trail” he’s done more in 100 days than obunghole did in eight years.”

Did you actually read what I wrote?

“But two important distinctions, Trump is actually visiting his real home from his temporary White House residence. “

Yes. We’re seeing a little hint of anti-Semitism in the Jared & Ivanka stuff along with the usual “cosmopolitan NYC stuff.” In fact, last night they were accusing the Kushners of having “NY values” by hiring a NYC press agent. As if the best press agents were all located in Pocatello, Idaho.

Hard to determine without an accurate vote count...deduct the fraudulent vote away from Hillary, and who knows?

A very well thought out response. </ s >

But for clarification, what exact point do you take issue other than me posting a CNN vid?

Perhaps Mar a Lago is the only place he can go that isn’t bugged?

“NY values”= anti-Semitism, just like the term “you people”.
The hint here recently is more than just “a little”.
