Let's Talk About Trump's Travels

Trump has got them all beat, ACCORDING TO WIKIPEDIA as of May 2019 Trump's golf trips cost taxpayers at least $102 million in extra travel and security expenses, trips to Florida having cost $81 million, his trips to New Jersey costing $17 million, his 2018 two days in Scotland costing at least $3 million, and $1 million for a trip to his resort in Los Angeles None of these expenses to taxpayers include trips his kids nor his wife made separately.

To date in 2019 Trump made 106 trips outside of Washington (not including those to Camp David). 18 of these trips were made to hold his rallies for political purposes so far this year.

Trump's cost to taxpayers far exceed the last 3 presidents in his first 2 1/2 years.


Where is all this money coming from within the budget?
Seems to be a secret. I can't find a complete accounting anywhere. As far as I know an audit was never done on how much the executive branch (no matter who's in office) cost us. I think taxpayers deserve to know. Between supplies, events, White House officials, staff maintaining and the renovations at the White House alone would be unsettling.
