If It's Just A Weekend To You And Me Why Is It Always A Vacation To Trump?

[mudwhistle]

Far as I know, a vacation is when you travel to Thialand, not when you go to your house.

Then we have to change the term "vacation home" to secondary residence, and allow people to write them off on their taxes.

Right now Trump Tower is his primary residence. Soon his son will be done with school and he and Melania will be moving to Washington.

Trump went to Florida this weekend. Most rational people call it a working trip to his home in Florida, but to the left it's a vacation? Obama would go on a golfing trip often to parts of the country, yet that never counted as a vacation to lying liberals. The only time it counted was when he spent weeks in the Bahamas, took his annual trip to Hawaii, or in Martha's Vineyard.

This is how the dishonest people on the left create their talking-points. They create double-standards and ignore the facts. Today Trump is working. Since when has anyone on this board considered a weekend a vacation?????

And you folks wonder why we never listen to a word you say anymore.

The way that the media rigged the facts when Bush was president was by counting every weekend as a vacation and calling every trip to Camp David an extended golfing trip. Bush decided to quit golfing while he was president because of this dishonest reporting.

Obama played golf at Marth's Vineyard close to 50 times. He played golf over 300 times while president. When did he have time to do his job. It's rare that I take the time to play more than a couple of times a year, but Obama had the time to play a couple of times a week. Is every time a vacation as well?

Life was one big party for Barack. The endless fundraisers, golf trips with the rich and famous, hosting championship teams going back 30 years at times.

Part of the reason for his visits to FL is he's receiving guests in a pleasant setting as part of his job as president. Obama received guests at rented compounds, charged to God only knows who.

Damn, and we spent hundreds of millions of dollars to make the white house so impressive to guests. Will Trump be holding state dinners at Mar-a-lago from now on?

Trump towers is Melania's primary residence. You have to spend most of your time there to make it a primary residence.

The primary factor that the IRS reviews when a taxpayer alternates between two or more properties for successive periods of time, is the time spent at each property. Specifically, the IRS generally grants primary residence status to the property in which the taxpayer spends the majority of their time during the year

Let's see, Trump spends 5 days at the white house, 2 days at Mar-a-lago, how much of the week has Trump spent in Trump tower to have it qualify as a primary?

The White House is far too plain for Trumpy. He likes his gold and glitz and gaudiness.

Trump's week ends are just something for democrats to whine about. They said they would complain about everything and they are. I'm surprised that democrats haven't complained about Trump's choice of toilet paper, or is thst already coming?

Moron, during the first 2 months of Obama's presidency, we were still in Bush's Great Recession and still operating under Bush's budget. Comparatively, Obama handed Trump a growing economy and we're still operating under Obama's budget.

Yep. Bush's recession ended in early 2009, so it must not have been much of one. How much of that belonged to the Democrat controlled congress who constantly claimed he wasn't spending enough????
However Obama raised the deficit to over $1.3 trillion in his first year. He established a new baseline in spending so he could claim he was cutting the deficit the following years when in fact he doubled spending.

None of Obama's budgets ever passed congress. We're operating under continuing resolutions. And what a president spends in the executive branch is up to him. Trump cut $100 billion so far. How much did Obama cut? 0

Moron, Bush's great recession actually lasted a year and a half. So what the fuck are you talking about? And Trump is cut nothing. What bills has he signed to cut spending? And of course the debt went up during Obama's first two months. He inherited a trillion dollar deficit from Bush. Again, we were still operating under Bush's budget. We were still in the midst of Bush's great recession. And of course it's coming down now. Obama handed Trump a growing economy. And we're still operating under Obama's budget. What part of that do you still find confusing?

The Democrats had a hand in that recession because they controlled congress beginning in 2007, and it ended June 2009.

Great Recession Ended in June 2009, Panel Says

So STFU.

A recession is 3 consecutive months of negative growth. Are you saying now that Obama’s growing economy wasn’t growing now?
Make up yo fucking mind, bitch!!

Moron, the recession was due to toxic loans written years earlier. By 2006, states were already reporting record numbers of foreclosures. By early 2007, the second biggest lender declared bankruptcy. The 110th Congress, which started just a few months earlier, had nothing to do with that. As always, you have no fucking clue what your fingers are banging on your keyboard.

Toxic loans?
You mean loans that were the result of regulation changes okayed by Congress at the urging of Democrats???

I remember Democrats accusing the GOP of racism if they didn't allow poor blacks with terrible credit and no money down to buy a home. Then those same poor motherfuckers walked away from those loans.....at the urging of Democrats.

No, the loans that were a result of lowering regulations.

It was Iran's money the U.S. held in trust. That's how. Obama did not use money collected from U.S. tax payers.

Technically some us taxpayer money was involved, because the interest came from T-bills, which are paid out of taxpayer reciepts.

It was all our money. We didn't owe Iran one cent. If you count the way they broke international laws in taking our embassy, and murdered our troops in Iraq, we didn't owe them squat. Iran killed our soldiers and you piss drinkers cried over their flag draped coffins.

It was not. It was Iranian money which the U.S. put a freeze on decades ago.

If it costs us 3.5 million for a weekend, each and every weekend, it's a vacation.

How much did it cost for Obama to go golfing? I'm sure it was in the millions every time.

Possibly. Florida is nice this time of year. The White House is nice but not as nice.

You might want to consider the average number of trips per month for the two.

If you own a cabin on a lake as a second residence... if you go there for the weekend it is a called a mini-vacation, because you are not staying at home. Trump's "home" isn't Mar-a-Lago, it is New York. So he isn't going "home" as many of you state, otherwise he'd be going to New York where there is already extra security staying there because Melania and Barron are there, and it wouldn't cost all this extra cash.

Your boss doesn't call it a vacation unless you don't show up for work Mon-Fri, so it isn't a vacation.

Sounds like an excellent excuse for more complaints.

Thank God Obama straightened that out. Now they can stop taking our sailors hostage and stop chanting "Death To America".

I'm sure we can trust Iran now that we gave them back their money.

Maybe they'll stop sponsoring terrorism and become nice friendly warm and fuzzy.

Or maybe you'll grow a brain and finally comprehend it wasn't our money.

Are you really this stupid?
No, that's what a dumbass does. Give their enemy the money to buy tanks so they can kill us.
