    Default Donald Trump’s Turnberry firm paid £50,000 by US Government for weekend visit"

    "Donald Trump’s Turnberry firm was paid more than £50,000 by his own government to cover the accommodation bill for his weekend stay at his loss-making resort"

    "The US taxpayers’ money went towards hotel rooms used by Mr Trump and his staff during his two-night stay at Turnberry, which the president said would be dominated by meetings and calls. He ended up playing two rounds of golf at the historic course"

    Wait a minute, we know now his supposed Charity Foundation was used to pay off Trump debts, but now the US taxpayers have bail out his losing property? Isn't there some kind of ethical question raised here? I didn't know it was considered acceptable for a President to use his position to profit himself?

    Well, least we can be happy knowing it is a whole lot cheaper than his million dollar weekend golf junkets to Florida

    "Drain the swamp," too funny, seems the fish in the swamp stink from the head down

    Typical american "capitalist" behavior. Rail against the commons while you line up and jockey for position at the trough.

    White Americans have been letting white men get away with this for decades.

    When will you all have enough?

    Now is this one of those posts where a conservative is attempting to deflect off of the topic and make it all about race?
