The Golf Blog says: As a candidate, Donald Trump famously said, “I’m going to be working for you. I’m not going to have time to go play golf.” As his tweets above indicate, Trump blasted President Obama for golfing during his presidency.
Now, it appears Pres. Trump has changed his tune. He’s golfing nearly every weekend at his own resort, Mar-a-lago, 11 times in 8 weeks, according to the Washington Post. According to Politico, it costs about $3 million each time Pres. Trump travels to Mar-a-Lago. On the current pace of his playing, Trump’s golf trips could cost $780 million over the next four years.

# of Trump Golf trips: 260
Est cost per trip: $3 mil.
