Report: 8 years of Obama vacations cost $85 million

[DwightShrute]

Probably the last President before Trump starts WWIII.

I am sure you will be right as usual

[vividjohn45]

From OP article

Published reports say the Trumps’ Thanksgiving trip to Florida wound up costing $7 million. Congress recently appropriated $7 million to reimburse state and local law enforcement agencies for overtime costs associated with protecting Trump before his inauguration. Palm Beach County says the county spent $250,000 for security support for Trump during his four-day visit over Thanksgiving.

This. Thats why the vacations are so high priced. The security entourages. Its unfortunate but this world does have a network of trained assasins.

We've already paid for $14,000,000 in extra security for the first lady at her place in NYC, and Sammy was worried about a measly $85,00,000

At this pace, we're gonna pay at least $1.46B in security for the first lady

But ya, food stamps are the problem

Would love to see sammy rationalize this one

None of the Trumbots will be able to. They'll just ignore it.

[Kermit]

If violent sour Liberals weren't so crazy, maybe the security wouldn't have to be as tight.

Looks like it cost taxpayers a lot regardless who the President is.

Taxpayers spent $1.4 billion dollars on everything from staffing, housing, flying and entertaining President Obama and his family last year, according to the author of a new book on taxpayer-funded presidential perks.

I think Sam you have a secret man crush on obama. The election is over and you keep posting threads about him. Just go jerk off to his pics and get over it

Sammy is a loser. A big time loser.

Nothing here to analyze except that $85,00,000 is really 8.5 million with an xtra comma. Lower the dosage.

He got so bored he shot off like a dozen tweets, called a federal judge so-called, and accused American leaders of being as ruthless as Putin.

So-Called President Trump really knows how to get away from it all.

Trump has done more to help the country in 3 weeks than Obama did in 8 years. He can do whatever he wants.

It will likely cost over $15 billion dollars to protect trump and his family during this presidency. Trump says he's a business man and Ive heard him talk a big game about getting a better deal with Mexico and Boeing, yet I havent heard him say a peep that its ridiculous its costing us taxpayers so much to protect him and his family at his NY Trump Tower, the WH and his Mar a lago estate.

Where are all you fiscal conservatives at????

You're all up in arms about food stamps but dont are ok with this?

Ok, hypocrites

It's posts like this is why us on the left shake our heads.

Should read, Trump has done more to separate and destabilize not only the country, but the world in less than 3 weeks than Obama did in 8 years.

[brooks85]

^it's post like this that make us intelligent people laugh and why idiots like rkelly will run away from it.

lol hilarious how your broken brain works and lying about not voting clinton isn't going to work. Didn't work for rkelly when he lied about saying he didn't vote obama.

When the president-elect’s son Eric Trump jetted to Uruguay in early January for a Trump Organization promotional trip, U.S. taxpayers were left footing a bill of nearly $100,000 in hotel rooms for Secret Service and embassy staff.

It was a high-profile jaunt out of the country for Eric, the fresh-faced executive of the Trump Organization who, like his father, pledged to keep the company separate from the presidency. Eric mingled with real estate brokers, dined at an open-air beachfront eatery and spoke to hundreds at an “ultra exclusive” Trump Tower Punta del Este evening party celebrating his visit.

Taxpayers will be out millions while Trump profits, what a country.

I know factual statements make the left shake their heads. It's why Trump won and nobody cares what you have to say.

you aren't fooling anyone with this nonsense. Barrack made statement like "if I had a son he would look like Treyvon" (a thug drug dealer), remember beergate? Did you ever hear Obama denounce what happened in Ferguson? Did you do anything about the shootings in Chicago?

RK, you are a perfect example of the segment of society who rather be lied to, as long as its done politely and with a smile then to be told the harsh realities because they might not be too pleasant. Coddle me Mr. President. Tell me its all ok.

Obama has divided the country and the world like no other US president has done in ages. Maybe ever.

Deny it all you want.

Couldnt have said it better. While we'll be watching the monkey throw feces on television and laughing he'll be increasing his portfolio tenfold, the jokes on us.

Okey dokey. Don't believe I saw a small inauguration or protests during Obama's inaugurations.
Don't believe I saw millions of people all across the globe protest the newly elected Obama.
Don't believe I've seen any protests over any of Obama's exe orders.

1st week your boy has caused more havoc than any of the last 10 presidents combined.

Would rather you post your meme's. We have to live with this fuk, you don't.

love your accurate prediction as usual jtoler.

[Gonz312]

I thought all the obama sheep were bad until all these trump sheep came out of the woodwork. They are truly happy throwing away any essence of actual democracy, checks and balances, and even the constitution now that their savior is in charge. Going against the same arguements they spent the past 8 years making.

Fired the acting AG for doing her job and not jumping at his every move, to hire someone who is fine being a puppet for the prez...you know like the last worthless AG who let the dnc and obama tell her what to do.

[JIBBBY]

I cannot think of one other Pres that destroyed this Country like Obama over an 8 year time frame

Bush Jr sucked too.. Back to back with Jr then Obama killed America..

Trump has his work cut out that's for sure..

If all Americans were smart they would quit bashing Trump and support him now for a better America.. Dems gonna fight and battle his agendas every step of the way which is sad ....

Thank God Republicans won the House, Senate and Presidency though.. Gonna be damn hard to fight Trump with that trifecta in play!!!

[jjgold]

Terrible Pres

Obama sucks cok

[dante1]

bush unnecessary war in Iraq--6 trillion plus. do the math.

Obama pulled troops out to early, all we fought for in Iraq was for nothing, ISIS world threat now.. Thanks Obama... Both shitty Presidents that cost America money, American llves and created a world danger now in radical Islam..

Trump to the rescue hopefully!!!!

if we weren't there in the first place, your opinion about pulling out early wouldn't even be argued for or against. see that is your opinion about pulling out and this is my opinion about not even being in there in the first place. plus we would have ALL those american lives saved, all the money and no radical islam to speak of.

America and just about all it's people including me wanted payback from 9/11.. Just about everyone was in favor of taking out Al Queda in Iraq.. We just got carried away trying to liberate and create Democracy in Iraq that is use to Shari Law.. Back fired but we and Bush Jr are all to blame..

Obama taking out troops early just to hold his word years earlier was a huge mistake which fueled the uprising and growth of ISIS..

I think Obama is more to blame then Bush Jr. if we are going tit for tat...

[maggiethebestdog]

Ok. I have to be fair and balanced. Iraq had very little to do with terrorism and nothing to do with 9/11 in 2001. That was a proven lie to invade a pre selected country who they had drawn up plans to invade in 1996. Now it is a terrorist hotspot. Don't re - write history like liberals do.

2 weeks and Trump already on a golfing vacay today.

2 weeks and Trump already on a golfing vacay today.

While we flew in Pence to enjoy the Superbowl. These dumb threads Sammy starts get picked apart like a small peanut. I beginning to think Sammy is dumber than Brooks and Dim-light Dwight. Wash, rinse, and repeat for the next dumb Sammy thread that gets annihilated

[JIBBBY]

2 weeks and Trump already on a golfing vacay today.

He had an interview with Billy O just before Superbowl.. I watched it and it's was just Trump saying he is trying to make America great.. Saying he is imposing flight restrictions to make America SAFER, he's building the wall to help reduce illegal immigration and slow the drug cartel... Bill hammered him on Putin.. He said if we can team up with Putin to defeat Isis and radical Islam that's a good thing..

His reason for his actions so far are all legit.. I call a spade a spade and that's my open minded opinion with Trump..

Go Trump!!! I have no problem with what he has done so far since taking office...

[The Kraken]

So proud the fed judge that slapped Trump silly was from seattle

Trump wants to completely bypass checks and balances and run the country like a business, not happening.

And to boot, it is a conservative judge appointed by W

He also said so what if Putin kills journalists and innocent people intentionally...so does America. "You think we're so innocent?"

That should be enough for treason charges.

The first truly anti-American POTUS.
