12th weekend in a row

By Philip Bump
April 23 at 10:18 AM

Since his first trip to Mar-a-Lago in early February, the longest stretch Donald Trump has gone without visiting one of the properties that is part of his private business empire has been six days. From March 27 to April 1, he didn’t spend time at Mar-a-Lago or at the Trump International Golf Club in Florida or at Trump National in Virginia or at his hotel down the street from the White House.

Of the 94 days he has been president, he has spent all or part of his time at Trump-branded properties on 33 of them, or an average of once every 2.8 days ...

so Comrade Casino can dodge his responsibilities once again, and play with his gourmet deluxe super elite russian-imported, caviar-encrusted rich-man's putter.

ON THE BRIGHT SIDE: I guess the republicans are squandering only about $2 million of our hard earned tax dollars on this Putter Party, since he didn't go back to florida.

Should that make us hard-working taxpayers feel better?
