    I thought the amount of time he golfs would be higher. Every time he golfs we pay the taco when he stays at his properties.

      I’m not a Trump supporter in any way, but it’s not excessive.

      That’s 21.7 weeks. If he went golfing on the weekend, then he still golfed less than 2 times per week.

        Est. cost to taxpayers for golf since returning to office: $51,800,000

        Perhaps you would not mind paying his golf bill then.

    Look at that 275lb (320?) bag of piss wrapped up in a cheap looking 10k suit shitting his pants. Nubby little fingers. Weird nubby mushroom member (this is from a a legal deposition)

    Clearly demented and so insecure he can’t even ask for help.

    Dude is in over his head.

    The stress is gonna kill him. He knows it that’s why he’s not working.

    He is not looking healthy

      If he’s angry, he doesn’t look that bad. If he’s just listening, he doesn’t look great, almost deflated looking.

    Incentivize it, you living malediction. Expand healthcare to allow more hours, increase overtime pay, make it easier to start a business, personally turn a few billionaires into pulp within a massive stadium housing solely seats, cameras, screens, a long spool of rope, and a single woodchipper. Frankly, these aren’t big asks.

      I think one of those industrial grinders that grind up engines and stuff would be even better. Just run it at extra slow speed as you lower them in.

    Given how worker production increasing over time and pay for said production have not stood in line with each other I think I’d rather not.

      No, I don’t think so.

      Biden golfed a total of nine times.

      Obama spent 3% of his time golfing.

      Trump, 22-25%, depending on the source.

      This is crazy shit, a dictator stating people should work harder while spending 1/4th of his time on the course. The presidency isn’f supposed to get weekends off.
