That's. Not as bad as I thought. It's once or twice a week, the local sports teams around me all play about once a week. If golf weren't so expensive it would sound normal.
Golf isn’t that expensive. Not more expensive than any other hobby to be fair. He makes it expensive because he only plays in his own courses and overcharges the hell out of The White House. What they spend on renting golf carts alone is a fortune. He’s a crook, but he’s so open about it that it really doesn’t affect him. Any other president would be torn to pieces about this, because they likely have shame and would try to hide actions like this. Trump normalizes depravity.
It also costs a few million just to fly him to maralago. Each time. Plus charging secret service for the rooms they stay in at his properties. He's just funneling taxpayer dollars into his own pocket.
Golf isn't spectacularly expensive if you play the same way normal people do, IE at your local club.
