Obama?s Travel Cost Taxpayers More Than $96 Million
 
President Obama's travel expenses cost taxpayers more than $96 million during his time in office, according to a report from the watchdog group Judicial Watch.

The group obtained documents from the Secret Service and Air Force that revealed President Obama's travel over the last eight years totaled $96,938,882.51.

President Obama's trip to the Florida Everglades on Earth Day in 2015 to give a speech about global warming cost a total of $1,012,367.76. While the speech was touted as an opportunity to talk about global warming, the president used the trip to attack Republican presidential candidates.

Over 8 years, $12 million a year, not bad.

Trump on pace to surpass 8 years of Obama's travel spending in 1 year

Trump has already spent about $30 million on travel and he has only been in office a few months.

Donald Trump says he is staying in New Jersey to save money despite spending millions on Mar-a-Lago weekends

Quote:

Donald Trump has claimed he is staying at his New Jersey home for the weekend in order to save money.

On Friday, the US president tweeted: ?Rather than causing a big disruption in NYC, I will be working out of my home in Bedminster, NJ this weekend. Also saves country money!?

Two days later he reiterated his reasons, writing: ?The reason I am staying in Bedminster, N J, a beautiful community, is that staying in NYC is much more expensive and disruptive. Meetings!?

The estimated cost of the President's trips to his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida is $20 million (£15.4 million) in his first one hundred days as leader. Barack Obama's trips cost a total of $97 million (£74.7 million) in eight years.

Senior White House spokesperson Sarah Huckabee told The Washington Post: ?I think he?s trying to save the taxpayer money the best way he can by taking his team and focus and being in New Jersey instead of being in New York, where it would have caused a much greater disruption and a much greater cost to taxpayers?.

When asked why the President did not conduct his meeting in the White House, where the costs would be significantly lower, Mrs Sanders did not comment.

In an interview with Fox News about his frequent weekend trips- many to golf courses ? he insisted he ?couldn?t care less about golf?.

:Oh crap

The should be a limit on the President's travel expenses for weekends off. Like Trump's weekly retreat.
It's really petty money be it sets a VERY bad example.
What they are not talking about is the expense OVER the normal presidential security expense. How much it is really costing?

The POTUS doesn't travel economy class and stay at the local Motel 6 regardless of what party is in power.

Anyway, deflecting is useless right-wing or left-wing troll crap.

We need to be realistic here.... No matter what we will need to have security for Trump Tower in NYC. We do the same for all presidents including Obama's home in Chicago and also Bush's home in Texas.

HelmutKohl 05-09-2017 08:43 AM

That is what Trump and family spend in 2 months or so. Trump on pace to outspend Obama?s entire travel costs in just one year

Right wingers like to put the nail in their own coffin and bring up losing arguments.

Yes, we are comparing pizza to oranges.

Trump doesn't have a small condo in Chicago, or a ranch in Texas that is easy to protect. It's painfully obvious I am not a fan of Trump, But we need to protect his home. It doesn't matter where his wife or child live; If they move to Washington DC we still have to provide protection to his home in NYC. And it's more expensive to protect a large office building than it is to protect the residence of past presidents.

Agreed. 4 weeks a year at places like Camp David or personal places like Bush or Trump had. Everything else should be for country business summits, meetings etc. I'd also ban the Presidents from doing any rallies on the country dime. If they want to do that, the parties can pay the costs to fly the President around.

Had Michelle Obama said she and their kids were going to stay in Chicago most of the year and it cost millions per month to provide extra security for them, the Republicans would have ripped Obama apart over this.
