Obama’s Lavish Golf and Fundraisers Cost the American People a Pretty Penny


While nothing has been released regarding the security costs of these lavish trips by our president, the documents obtained by the Judicial Watch show us exactly what his transportation cost the tax payers.

According to Judicial Watch, the documents show:

Obama’s February 14, 2015, golf outing to Palm Springs required a five-hour flight, costing taxpayers a total of $1,031,685.

Transportation for Obama’s February 19 day trip to Chicago cost taxpayers $619,011.00.

Transportation for Obama’s March 2015 fundraising trip to Los Angeles cost taxpayers $1,980,835.20.

Obama’s March 28, 2015, golf outing to Palm city required a 3.9-hour flight, costing taxpayers $804,870.30.

The report notes that in Palm Springs Obama spent the whole weekend at the luxurious Sunnylands country club, while the trip to LA was mostly about appearing on “Jimmy Kimmel Live” and raking in up to $33,400 per couple for attendance to a private DNC fundraiser.

The two golf outings alone cost taxpayers $1,836,555 in travel expenses. Obama played a total of five rounds of golf, equating to a cost of $20,406 per hole. The two fundraising trips totaled $2.59 million.

This sounds like an excellent use of the tax payers money . . . not. And if he golfs as bad as he throws a baseball, it makes this matter even worse. If taxpayers aren’t outraged by the waste of $4.4 million of their tax dollars, the hope for future is about futile as the hope of paying off the massive national debt that builds more each day.
