Summary
Donald Trump’s frequent golf trips, especially to his properties like Mar-a-Lago, cost taxpayers millions while he cuts federal jobs and claims to fight waste.
Trump has made seven trips to Florida since his inauguration, with each Mar-a-Lago visit costing approximately $3.4 million in federal funds.
His businesses profit by charging the government 300% above authorized rates for Secret Service accommodations. The Palm Beach sheriff alone spends $240,000 daily protecting Trump and is requesting $45 million for this year’s security.
Unlike previous presidents, Trump refuses to divest from his businesses, creating conflicts of interest as he enriches himself through taxpayer-funded visits to his properties.

This is what he did in the first term as well.
These was no way of knowing he would do it again.
They shouldn’t use the neutral language “costing taxpayers millions.” That’s taxpayer money going into an elected official’s personal coffers. It’s embezzling.
I’m a little surprised a paper like The Guardian is talking about it at all, given how fixated Starmer has become in sucking up to the Trump Administration. Have to wonder how long until someone from DOGE or the State Department gives the PM a call and asks him to tell his papers of record to cut that shit out.
All those tax dollars paying for his entourage of staffers at Mar-A-Lago are simply lining Trump’s pockets. I’m surprised that Camp David hasn’t been auctioned off since he never uses it.
