Montini: Double bogey - Trump outspending, out-golfing Obama

A man at his leisure.
Being president is a difficult job, and I don’t begrudge the officeholder from taking the occasional day off.
However, current President Donald Trump was relentlessly critical of former President Barack Obama, railing against Obama for taking vacations and/or for golfing. Only here’s the thing: In his first month in office, Trump has spent way more taxpayer money than Obama did on weekend getaways and has done a LOT more golfing.
It’s been estimated that in just his first month Trump’s golfing forays to Florida on the weekends have cost taxpayers $10 million.
By comparison, during President Obama’s entire eight years in office his vacations – with all the security precautions that come with protecting a president and his family – cost taxpayers $97 million.
It’s an awful lot of money.
But it took eight years.
Golfing = 20 percent of Trump's time
Trump is on pace to spend more taxpayer money than that in one year.
One.
This from a man who for years has ridiculed Obama for taking time off.
Here are just a few or Trump’s tweets about that:

I play golf to relax. My company is in great shape. @BarackObama plays golf to escape work while America goes down the drain.

Trump also has been golfing at least six times during his first 31 days.
That’s roughly 20 percent of his time.
Twenty percent.

@BarackObama played golf yesterday. Now he heads to a 10 day vacation in Martha's Vineyard. Nice work ethic.
