Trump's Golf Spending Draws Criticism

Since resuming office, President Donald Trump has faced criticism for spending a significant amount of time golfing, with reports indicating he has spent $10.7 million of taxpayer money on golf outings in his first month back. This expenditure includes costs for transportation and security, reflecting the high expenses associated with his trips to golf courses, particularly his properties in Florida. Despite advocating for reduced government spending, neither Trump nor Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency has addressed the spending on these leisure activities. Trump has been criticized for his frequent golfing, with claims that he has spent nearly a quarter of his presidency on the golf course. This stands in contrast to his past criticism of Joe Biden's vacation habits. The expenses related to Trump's golfing trips are based on estimates from a 2019 Government Accountability Office report, which calculated high costs for similar past excursions.
