[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Report: 8 years of Obama vacations cost $85 milliWASHINGTON 
As America’s first family enjoys its eighth and final vacation in Hawaii, new estimates put the price tag of the Obamas’ annual trip at $3.5 million or more.

The cost of Air Force One and other government planes as well as helicopters, cargo planes, armored cars, Secret Service protection and advance, communications and medical staff has led Judicial Watch to push for less personal travel.

Hawaii and Martha Vineyard trips cost more than Florida's. Trump vacations at his own home. Taxpayers have to pay for Obamas' lodgings.[/quote]

How often did the Obamas go to Hawaii and Martha’s Vineyard, where they paid for their own “lodgings”? How often does Trump go to Florida and New Jersey, where we pay Trump for the Secret Service’s “lodgings”?[/quote]

The Obamas went to Hawaii once a year.  Trump is at Mar-a-lago every weekend, and each visit costs 3.5 million.  To say nothing of Melania’s decision to remain in New York after her husband’s election, which cost 100 mn$ in secret service bills.[/quote]
