President Carter at least went to his own house. Presidents Clinton and Obama stay at the homes of rich democrat contributors with the taxpayer on the hook for the rent.
Mr. President: you have a million dollar home in Chicago. Go there.

Sometimes I think I do more work than he does… and I've been unemployed/underemployed for more than a year.

The Press calls it a Vacation as if he actually worked for a living. The guy is on one big EBT Party with the Top EBT card. Serial number 0000 0000 0000 0000 expiration date nov/2016
