Trump goes on holiday
Trump begins his holidays at his Golf Club in New Jersey and will be there 17 days. By the end of August the US president will have had 53 days without working since arriving at the White House. Nothing to be said, holidays are a right. But we cannot forget the criticism he hurled at Barack Obama when he took a few days off. More than once Trump said he would not do the same as president. He must have changed his mind. Or perhaps he did not have a choice as they are renovating the White House in August. According to the Judicial Watch observatory, Obama’s holidays over eight years cost €84 million while Trump in the first 80 days in office: €17 million. At least we could do without the lessons of austerity, please.
