    By contrast, Obama's non-presidential travel costs were ~ $100M spread out over eight years.

    "Judicial Watch, a conservative watchdog group, obtained government records in December 2016 near the end of the Obama administration and summarized the Obama family's eight years of travel, putting the known cost at $96.9 million. "The Obamas' notorious abuse of presidential travel perks wasted military resources and stressed the Secret Service. Judicial Watch estimates that the final costs of Obama's unnecessary vacation and political travel will well exceed $100 million," Judicial Watch president Tom Fitton said in December. At that time, he added: "President-elect Trump can immediately save taxpayers money by reforming presidential travel." *

    * (Note that Judicial Watch is including in the ~$100M figure "political travel." You know, like Toadstool's many, many political rallies.)

    "What is Fitton saying about Trump's travels so far? "It's a rather obvious use of taxpayer resources for seemingly unnecessary purposes."" (source: https://www.tampabay.com/opinion/col...llions/2320612 )

    From Forbes (July 2019):

    "From a combination of an analysis from the HuffPost, the GAO or General Accounting Office, Politico and the Washington Post using costs from both Obama and Trump golf trips the estimated cost of Trump’s visits so far come to a range of $105 to $108 million. When you extrapolate the $105 million estimate to eight years, assuming Trump is re-elected, the total cost is over $340 million." (source: https://www.forbes.com/sites/chuckjo.../#47ac3de528aa )

    Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

    That's nice, but your link is from 2017..... when Trump hadn't even been in office for a full year yet. My Forbes link is from this month, and says that so far Trump's vacations -- not including the political rallies that Judicial Watch includes in their Obama travel costs -- are "$105 to $108 million." So after 2-1/2 years in office, Toadstool has cost us almost as much as Obama did in his entire eight-year term. Not including Trump's political rally expenses.

    The that political part is being artificially introduced into religious teachings to attack a person's political views. Criticize their political views about foreigners, leave their religion out of it. It is phony.

    You got it backwards. I didn't say anything about a person changing his religious views, I was referring to a person changing his political views so they would conform to what some critic thinks they should be to be consistent.

    So then trump is winning....... He accomplished in a few years what took Obama 8 years.. What a wimp.
    "There is no question former President Trump bears moral responsibility. His supporters stormed the Capitol because of the unhinged falsehoods he shouted into the world’s largest megaphone," McConnell wrote. "His behavior during and after the chaos was also unconscionable, from attacking Vice President Mike Pence during the riot to praising the criminals after it ended."

    IOW, Trump is projected to triple the Obamas' "notorious abuse of presidential travel perks", and the same people who were up in arms about Obama are completely silent about Trump.

    Notice that the date of that article is from late in 2017 and, even so, doesn't specify what dates are included in the Trump totals.
