Liberal Seeks To Understand #5
I'll admit to being a liberal, so speak slowly and use small words please.
Although I can get salty, here I'm just trying to understand conservatives' POV on issues. This is an honest question. As before, I'll return respect with respect and crudeness with crudeness.
What do conservatives feel about Trump's golfing and Mar-a-Lago stays?
When Obama was president, I read a lot of conservative complaints about wasting taxpayer money on vacations. There was also a brou-ha-ha over how much time he spent golfing. Now that Trump is president, though, I'm not seeing any such complaints. His trips to Mar-a-Lago and staying at Trump Tower in NYC are costing millions of taxpayer dollars, while he has been on the golf courses more than Obama or Bush at this point in their presidencies.
Is this a concern to conservatives today? Is there something different that makes Obama's actions bad but Trump's actions okay? And given how Trump repeatedly knocked Obama for golfing, does it seem hypocritical to y'all that Trump is golfing so much at the start of his presidency?
Again, I'm just trying to grok the other side so I can be less ignorant and more sympathetic. Cheers!
