Mar-a-Lago: The price of Trump's 'Winter White House'

Key points

$3.3 million Estimated cost of each weekend trip by President Trump to Mar-a-Lago Which is about $30 million so far in three months for those trips alone.

Added to that, the decision to keep his wife Melania and son Barron living in Manhattan is costing the state an estimated $58 million per year, according to the New York Police Department.

Mr Obama spent $97 million on travel in his entire eight years in office - a figure Mr Trump could, at his current rate, comfortably outspend within his first year.

Mr Trump has at his disposal the traditional presidential retreat of Camp David, in Maryland, where for decades presidents have hosted foreign leaders. Camp David is a short helicopter trip from the White House and, as an existing Naval base, security comes cheap.

But the retreat was apparently not to Mr Trump's taste. "Camp David is very rustic, it's nice, you'd like it," he told a reporter. "You know how long you'd like it? For about 30 minutes." WTF Donald


So on track for $100 million – nope he is already just about there (for the pedantic the figure is ($40 million ytd - 3 month spend minimum).

So all this is going to cost $150-200 million a year? Guffaws perhaps hes looking to break $500 million for his 4 years..oh wait $1Billion guffaws loses bladder control just about here

Fair guffawed at this one too $200,000 Up front cost for membership (doubled after the election)

And trumps tweets about expenses:

When will Obama next go on vacation if he wins the election? The day after.
3:05 PM - 12 Sep 2012

While our wonderful president was out playing golf all day, the TSA is falling apart, just like our government! Airports a total disaster!
11:56 AM - 21 May 2016

Obama’s motto: If I don’t go on tax payer funded vacations & constantly fundraise then the terrorists win.
7:34 PM - 25 Aug 2014

President @BarackObama's vacation is costing taxpayers millions of dollars----Unbelievable! Donald you truly are
7:56 PM - 5 Jan 2012

Odd how leftists suddenly care about things like deficits and budgets etc only when there's a Republican they think they can scapegoat




WickedsDesire -> RE: The price of Trump's 'Winter White House' (4/6/2017 7:54:20 AM)

They all need security. For his wife and son, to keep them in New York is $60 million a year x 4 years = $240 million

His trips, as he doesn't like "rustic" camp david, hes at $40 millon for 3 months x 4 = $160 million x 4 years = $640 million..that is outrageous

$1000 million, $1 billion because they wont be far of that, is raving lunacy.

Not true.

However, it is obvious that you have become a massive, unapologetic hypocrite about government spending simply because you want to desperately believe Trump's election means that you are a winner.




WickedsDesire -> RE: The price of Trump's 'Winter White House' (4/6/2017 8:53:26 AM)

Do you believe hysterical snow flake boscox I would have said differently if this was a Democrat President and yet your orange muppet was laying into Obama <$100 million over 8 years

He has in essence pissed away $40 million in three months, and trying to piss away over $100 million in a year as the mental retard thinks Camp David looks "rustic"








longwayhome -> RE: The price of Trump's 'Winter White House' (4/6/2017 4:27:16 PM)

This isn't a matter of left or right.

Trump criticised Obama for wasting public money on trips and holidays and now he has blown Obama's annual budget for such things in a matter of weeks.

It represents a huge failure of public governance and the entire political system when this sort of hike in costs becomes a matter people are willing to gloss over because they support the guy responsible for it.

Who needs the $400,000 salary Trump has so graciously given up when it is dwarfed by setting up new domestic, hospitality and security arrangements which blow that in less than a weekend?

Another sad and disgusting thing is that a huge (yuge?) portion of the government money spent at Mar-a-lago and at Trump Towers is simply going into Trumps own pockets since he owns them.

But of course the Republicans don't mind all that. After all, Trump is going to make America great again.

We are so sure your lizard tears are out of genuine concern, too - after your guy ran the debt up to nearly 21 trillion and you didn't breathe a word about that




Lucylastic -> RE: The price of Trump's 'Winter White House' (4/6/2017 5:32:57 PM)

Debt is 19 trillion.
Not 21

Back in 2007, if you can remember that far, everyone on both sides of the aisle said the same thing. Whomever the next president would be was going to have an EXTREMELY difficult time fixing the mess created by GWB. Obama was elected, and got ZERO help from the GOP. So, he did what was necessary to get the country started in the right direction again. Yes, it took money due to the disaster left by Bush. And guess what . . . it worked. But you ignorant SOBs that thought Trump would somehow be good for the country, voted the ignorant bastard in, and he is now in the process of sending the country right back down the shitter. And to try to distract everyone from the disaster known as Trump, all you can do is yell, "Obama! Obama! Obama!"

You are making shit up, from an extremely partisan and twisted point of view completely devoid of the actual facts




Lucylastic -> RE: The price of Trump's 'Winter White House' (4/6/2017 6:18:24 PM)

everything he says is alternative facts:)

Crazy Lucy's figure is wrong, as always

I was going off the top of my head, going by the figures and estimates I had seen last, projections had the debt at 21 trillion around the end of Obama's last fiscal year

If you are going to nit pick like an ugly old hag you should get your figures right

And according to "liberal" math two trillion dollars of taxpayer money is nothing, so long as it is another "liberal" who is wasting it

On January 20, 2009, when he was sworn in, the debt was $10.626 trillion. On January 20, 2017, it was $19.947 trillion. That's why most people say Obama added $9 trillion to the debt, more than any other president.

And we are still going on Obama's budget (or lack thereof)

Trillions and trillions, more than any other president

And you lizards are crying your lizard tears now, while this president is working to reduce the debt

Which Obama paid lip service to, even to the point of calling George W. Bush "unpatriotic" for creating far less debt







Lucylastic -> RE: The price of Trump's 'Winter White House' (4/6/2017 6:29:29 PM)

until you can tell the truth, you will be called out.
