Trump has spent nearly a third of his presidency visiting his business properties at taxpayer expense: REPORT
"President Donald Trump has spent nearly a third of his presidency visiting his business properties at taxpayer expense, according to a new report by the government watchdog group Citizens for Ethics and Responsibility (CREW) in Washington.
"CREW has found over 2,300 conflicts of interest resulting from Trump's decision not to divest ownership of his global business empire upon entering office."
"The nonprofit added that there are likely more conflicts of interest than the ones they have been able to identify.
"This corrupt relationship between the Trump Organization and the White House leaves the American public in the dark about whether presidential decisions and policy are being made in the best interest of the country or in the best interest of the president's own bottom line," Noah Bookbinder, CREW's executive director, told Newsweek."

As of September 8, 2019, the president has spent almost $109 million of tax payers’ money to play golf at his resorts over 215 times during his presidency. If he is not golfing, he is tweeting. If he is not tweeting, he is praising himself for things he has not done. If he is not praising himself, he is calling out the press as “Fake News.” That leaves about 30 minutes a day to act as President of the United States.

And his VP stays at his resort when visiting Ireland ... and his Attorney General is spending big bucks on a party at his DC hotel. Not to mention plans to hold the next G-7 (or if he gets his way G-8 with his buddy) at one of his resorts in Florida?!

Trump is corrupt. You are fool if you support Trump.
@LiterateHiker OHHHHHHH, I'm no fool. I mean every day it just gets worse and worse. I can't believe the Republican Congress.
@ChurchLess The Trump Philosophy: We got away
with it last time so why don't we see if
we can get away with it this time. And
since no one in congress is seriously
prepared to stop them, they'll just keep
raising the ante.
@pattisabby Fully agree with this. Since tRump doesn’t believe the law applies to him, the USA is his oyster. (Or so he thinks...)
