    1. @Fabi Grossi He donates it to various entities and NGOs except in the case of donating to some federal agencies like BLM, ID, and USAID.

    2. @Rod Allen this is not a legit news link. Why does foxnews and other pro tRump have any news of his organization has been closed and he must pay 2 million.
      Why don’t they comment on his use of tax money go to his resort because of playing golf. 120mill has it cost so far, whiteout taking in his use of AFC1.
      And why he put foreign country into his hotel in Washington.
      Because this will be hurting their loyalty to their viewers.
      He is born and raised to be a conman and a coward in U.S. standard. Dodging draft 6 time bankrupt and calling for chapter 11.

    3. @Ash Roskell idk if you’re really an American or if you’re 1 of pootie’s trolls. Whoever you are, though—don’t count the U.S.A. out just quite yet! We are a strong ppl. Most of us are on the side of right. I believe we will get rid of dump, foil pootie’s nefarious plans for us, the dump cult will slink back under their rocks, & we the sane ppl will prevail.

    1. @Adi-LMNOP Actually, I would argue that you responded because Nothingberder’s comment made you mad- triggered you, if you will. Otherwise, why would you bother responding? Why feel the need to try and defend Trump or your support for him unless you are offended by the original comment? Sounds to me like you are a snowflake in need of a safe space because you have been triggered.

    2. @Ryan Donahue rye-bread, it’s fun to antagonize leftards like you… PS: Enjoy the Durham Report ….TRUMP 2020, 2024

      And how about that stock market !! ya cvnt!

  1. Millions of dollars Everytime he goes golfing is millions of tens of thousands of dollars to house all the secret service body guards. Some people are really ignorant of the fact that Trump is stealing all the tax payers money infront of their faces

  2. “Trump gets back to work”? You can hold up military aid, extort a country and give Putin head while golfing? While that sucks, pun intended, he is multitasking.

    1. @Martin Conta Gets Banned Impeached Traitor Trump Troll – YOU support the corruption, the emoluments violations, the sniveling submission to Putin, the mass 70,000++ abduction and terrorizing of children and babies, teargassing of unarmed families with children across an International border, stealing of the 2016 Election, the attempted stealing of the 2020 Election, Helsinki, the Russian Foreign Minister standing over the president behind the Resolute Desk in the Oval Office as Donnie sat like a schoolboy in front of him, Russian money laundering, stock market manipulation & grotesque Corporate Tax Cuts, STEALING from his Charity for Kids & Vets, Removal from the Paris Climate agreement, trying to destroy NATO, many secret & 100% private Putin meetings, Brett “I like Beer” Kavascum, 5 time Draft Dodger, 6 time Bankruptcy king who spends other peoples money and does not pay back his debt, the gross immaturity, the hate, racism & white supremacy mongering and a long list more!
      – Impeached Traitor Trump’s Treasonous Corruption and Psychosis will be reviled throughout history for many, many centuries to come. Throughout time All will know that their sniveling “Chosen One” was nothing, but a 2 bit hustler who conned all the “christian racists and morons” and actively, willfully and with malice of forethought tried to destroy the United States of America.

  3. Maybe the Gate is below Mar A Lago where the Russians are desperately trying to hatch their plan. 😄 anyone who has seen Stranger Things knows what I’m talking about.

  4. In Trump’s Christmas message to the nation, he called for a culture of unity, deeper undertanding, and respect. About 3 hours later, he was back on twitter calling people names, telling blatant lies, using divisive and derogatory language, and basically lashing out in every direction like a deranged lunatic.

    Well….at least he “tried.” 😔

  5. On Dec 23, at turning point USA, Trump gave what could be considered his most asi-nine and
    stupefying soliloquy to date.

    “I never understood wind. I know windmills very much, I have studied it better than anybody. I know it is very expensive. They are made in China and Germany mostly, very few made here, almost none, but they are manufactured, tremendous — if you are into this — tremendous fumes and gases are spewing into the atmosphere. You know we have a world, right? So the world is tiny compared to the universe. So tremendous, tremendous amount of fumes and everything. You talk about the carbon footprint, fumes are spewing into the air, right spewing, whether it is China or Germany, is going into the air. It’s our air, their air, everything — right?”
    –Trump

    Just let all of that sink in for a moment. Trump enjoys giving the world peeks inside his diseased riddled mind.

    1. @Josef
      He who? Trump? Trump doesn’t troll. He’s a provocateur. He believes every lie that comes out of his own mouth.

    2. @Ryan Watterson – You might have something there if you worded it correctly. Kind of hard to make much sense of it all. Slow down and you will get there quicker.

  6. But he is a great golfer. They nicknamed him Pele (arguably the greatest soccer player ever) for his ability to kick golf balls out of the rough

    1. He exhibits the same incredible foot skills on the green.

      All you Trumpturds, don’t worry your little tiny, tiny, micro sized snowflake hearts…

      Trump’s bone spurr is on his other foot.

    2. As he lies constantly and cheats workers out of duly earned money, it is not hard to imagine that he is a cheat at golf also

    3. Pele, lol. Yeah, i wonder how much he pays his caddy to constantly move the ball closer. Funny how his score is always much higher when cameras and officials are everywhere. “I’m the best at golf. I have all the highest scores.” lol

  7. It’s like a really bad movie…
    Nobody would believe this if you put it in a movie.
    The pathetic draft dodger telling soldiers he’s “working”

    1. I live in Canada and it’s more a like a reality tv show here. What goes on down in the states these days just doesn’t seem real anymore and I live a two hour drive from the border.

  8. Trump shouldn’t be called “sir”. It’s demeaning to an honorable military man to have to address such a despicable POS with respect he doesn’t deserve.

    1. Trump resides at the very apex of unearned privilege and entitlement. An ignorant, totally corrupt old fool, there are no depths to which he will not sink, fouling the office and anyone near him in the process.

    2. We agree on Trump. I think most people do, because he does it all in plain sight. I’m not American and I sincerely hope there are enough decent people left in your country to avoid him being re elected. Best of luck ….

  9. No president has golfed more than Trump has during their presidency.
    Or spent as much as he has of the taxpayers’ money on golf courses either.

    1. @Marc Emson ok yes conflict of interest and ethics. Why did they not impeach him on that? I think the democrats do not care but are using impeachment as a ploy.

    2. Jeff Hays so Trump can do no wrong unless the Democrats impeach him for it, but if they DO impeach him it’s a sham?

  10. When he’s golfing it takes his mind off the immense workload he has day in day out as President. It can’t be easy starting work at 11:30 5 days a week and finishing after 3 or 4 hours..

    1. In his defense he probably believes he works harder than any president in history. When you’ve lived so privileged for 70+ years you have no idea what real work is. Those 4 hours must be absolutely excruciating to him.

    2. Mathew Lewis. You forgot to mention that his “work day” includes sending several insane tweets and watching TV followed by more insulting and bragging tweets. How can this lunacy be allowed to continue? It is a mystery! I have never seen a more disgusting and malignant narcissist than this so called president.Good heavens!

  11. We need a lot of quotation marks to describe the era of the moron. And the world is watching and taking advantage.
