Cheyenne Roundtree - The White House is being repaired - including new AC/Heating Unit. Pull some quotes on it - a few facts light up a story...
Bedminster is in a beautiful part of New Jersey where some of the wealthiest people in the world have giant estates that look like something out of Victorian England. Trump National was built on a 506-acre property that was the former estate of auto tycoon John DeLorean. Robert Wood Johnson IV -- the owner of the New York Jets who has been nominated to serve as the U.S. ambassador to Great Britain -- lives right across the road. Steve Forbes lives about a quarter of a mile away from the southern edge of the golf course ... and if you ever see photos or video clips of protesters out in Bedminster during Trump's visits, these demonstrators are confined in an area along Route 206 that is right across the road from the quaint brick office building with the colonial trim that used to be the headquarters for Forbes magazine.
I suspect you're right about the media and their anger about not going to the Hamptons or Martha's Vineyard. Bedminster is a beautiful area ... but as I've posted previously on this topic, nobody goes on vacation there for 17 hours, let alone 17 days.
He needs to get out of that cesspool of spies and if the leaks follow him then there is a smaller group of suspects.
Ineresting that there would be any issue with Trump having a 3 week vacation...
This is the summary of barry’s vacations (excluding the 33 trips to Camp David)
CBS White House reporter Mark Knoller is the unofficial but widely trusted chronicler of data on presidential travels and other day-to-day White House goings-on, so we turned to his calculations.
On Aug. 8, 2014, Knoller tweeted that Obama had taken 19 vacations totaling 125 days so far while in office.
This was thru 2014, and Obama took a 16-day trip to Martha’s Vineyard in 2016.
Thank you so much for that really great info. Your explanation reminds me of some small areas of Upstate NY where I was born.
I suspect Trump wanted a place to play golf; relax with the family; and have meetings, or whatever.
They only took a vaca because of the renovations going on in the WH. So .. I agree .. it might not be a vaca at all; just a place to relocate while all the noise is going on in the WH.
I was drinking a beer and some of it got into my nose! Thanks for the laugh!
Idiot reporter!
The a/c system in the White House is being replaced and the Oval Office has already been stripped, as the flooring is being replaced. Congress is on vacation.
Where does this twit reporter think the POTUS and family should live, other than where he chose to take a working vacation where he can also play golf?
Although the repairs force the Pres to relocate for a few weeks, the Donald’s security team will clean the course as well as Secret Service. No bugs = staffers leaking = small finite group of accountable people. President Trump is always playing 3D chess with checker playing opponents. MAGA!
slamming Trump over a vacation? What did it cost the American taxpayer next to the a##hat and his wife
Nice...I believe Trump will be in the history books as one of the greatest president and Trump might cause both parties to end with new parties taking their places.
Let's face it. The only reason why the media is making a big deal of this is because of Trump's criticism of Obama's vacations and his claim that he would be too busy to golf and vacation himself. Throw away comments that the media are now fixating on.

People only attacked Obama because the media attack Bush for it. Turn about is fair play.
I read there redoing the heating and AC. system in the west wing
and everyone had to leave
At least Trump knows how to golf as opposed to the last sissy.
Beats the heck out of binge-watching “The Good Wife” or whatever it was that Obama used to binge watch.
There is a difference between democrat presidents and Republican Presidents taking time off from the Whitehouse.
Democrat presidents Rent high end residences of the wealthy using taxpayers money. Republican Presidents take their time away from the Whitehouse by going HOME. The Republican Presidents like going “home” to rest.
“.... LOL ..... Like it or not .... This President is Definitely and Truly a President of the Common Man ...... People from ALL walks of life living in these United States of America.!”
Common man? HOW many(what percentage) of grown men belong to a country club?? Lemme know please....
Rumor of a Russian mail order bride. Mueller is on it.
Not only that, but the WH is undergoing maintenance, including repairing/replacing the 27 year old A/C system.
