The difference here is Obama flew off to play golf to HIDE from the world.

President Trump goes to Mar-a-lago to play golf and make deals on the course.
No press.
No pressure.
A relaxed atmosphere where people can talk frankly.
It's how he made his millions.

What an entitled shrew.

And Judicial Watch records an extravagant bill for booze. How much of that did Nancy smuggle off of the flight in her bags. If she pops a bottle open and leaves it behind, the rest has to be destroyed.

"...purchases for one Pelosi-led congressional delegation traveling from Washington, DC, through Tel Aviv, Israel to Baghdad, Iraq May 15-20, 2008 included: Johnny Walker Red scotch, Grey Goose vodka, E&J brandy, Bailey’s Irish Crème, Maker’s Mark whiskey, Courvoisier cognac, Bacardi Light rum, Jim Beam whiskey, Beefeater gin, Dewar’s scotch, Bombay Sapphire gin, Jack Daniels whiskey, Corona beer and several bottles of wine."

My personal way of looking into the crystal ball of destiny says San Fran Nan is about to receive her comeuppance.

They (ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC) all get the same talking points from the DNC.

Simply by turning to their spouse.

Not necessarily foreign dignitaries but most have been working weekends this man never takes a break and by the way he owns Mar-A-Lago so I doubt the United States is paying for that they’re paying for airfare and security and I bet he has his own Security on board as well since you can’t trust half the Secret Service anyway.

Don’t forget to include the cost of the hookers and special events for the Secret Service detail.

Get all of apples and oranges sorted into fruits of a common kind. Then, analyze the situation.

CNN never said a word about the exorbitant expenses the Obamas incurred on their world wide tours with the kids and mom in law. F CNN!

Notice the segue from “so-called Winter White House” to “his resort”. This began about a week ago or so. I get my MSM in brief YT clips and excerpts from the print versions, so it may have been longer.

Never a word about flying ValJar, grandma and a dozen or so friends to exotic destinations. And the basketballs and the dogs.

Steak dinners, booze, hiring modest entertainment such as Bruce Springsteen, all tallied into the millions at taxpayer expense. Trump spends his own money, however. The CNN operatives of the Democrat party won’t tell you that.

Interesting that if you can tell truth from false (good vs. evil, right vs. wrong, etc.), you can tell when the liars are lying. Hint: the liars are the libs, and they shouldn’t be in the news biz because they just make fools out of themselves.

As I recall, she flew on military transports. Why didn't she used her broom ?

Nope she had her own plane and she used it to fly her friends around on vacations. Do a search on the liquor bill for the plane.

Like all perks they never disappear, Ryan still has the plane I think.

In fairness She only had one plane when the President travels there are half a dozen support aircraft that goes with him.

Trump submitted a Budget that slashes Government Spending and every one of these Morons is against it.

He has already saved multi Millions negotiating the new AF-1 Contracts and the F-35 Program Costs.

His Travel Costs compared to the savings he is proposing is nothing more than a rounding error.

They love the Government spending Money, they just don’t want any of it supporting The President.

President Bush used his Texas Ranch as the Western White House like LBJ used his Texas Ranch, Nixon used his Home in San Clemente and Reagan used his Central California Ranch as Western White Houses.

Now Mar-a-Lago is the Southern White House.

Clinton and Obama didn’t own Ranches and Resorts. They always Vacationed using other People’s Homes, AKA Donors.
