One Nation, Under God

Thanks to the U.S. House and aren't there golf courses in D.C.?

Dear Editor,

Gee, no arm-twisting, insulting Tweets or threats of not being re-elected in 2018 made by President Trump could change the minds of U.S House of Representatives conservative set. Yeah for sticking to believing the campaign promise of eliminating "ObamaCare."

Not that it doesn't need work.

But at least President Trump was considerate enough this past Saturday and not cost us (tax payers) 3.2 million to go to Mir-a-logo resort to play golf - instead to one of his resorts in Virginia.

Oh by the way Secret Service just requested an additional $60 million for President Trump's lifestyle protection - $26.8 million for security of Trump Tower - family residence - $33 million Trump's trips, etc protection. And President Trump wanted to cut funding of $220 million to the Meal On Wheels program.

Currently each trip to Mir-a-logo costs $3.2 million - 68 trips costs almost $220 million and President Trump has gone five times since his Inauguration seven weeks ago. If the current rate of visits continues in 68 weeks the cost would be $220 million.

If President Trump would use Camp David for getaways and play golf locally, Meals on Wheels could be funded.. (Source of Secret Service request is the Washington Post.)

Wonder what the Trump voter waiting for his job to return as promised by the Trump campaign thinks.
