Discussion: WH Spox Grilled On How Trump Staying At NJ Golf Club Saves Taxpayer Money

Not to mention that this way, he doesn’t have to spend time with his wife and child, presumably. That might be by their choice, of course.

Or his. He can’t play around if they’re there. (Gotta go in the other room and vomit now.)

They fly in the motorcades as well. Each time the President chooses to go to a new, previously unsecured location for a stay, it costs massive amounts of money. That, along with minimizing disruptions, is one of the big reasons for Camp David.

He is a grifter, and his family think that they are entitled to being paid because according to them it comes with the territory. I’m also angry today!!!

Buuut trumpy ain’t no kinda a country boy. He’d be bored and want to leave inside 10 minutes by the bucolic setting of Camp David. Trump’s a creature of the canyons of NYC and is only comfortable swathed in diesel fumes and car exhaust.

The Hucksterette is smooth, not counting her entirely inappropriate choice of clothing. She smoothy repeated the carefully prewritten spin on every topic that was brought up. The reporters got nothing whatsoever from this “press conference,” just well rehearsed public relations spin. To people in this job (and I think hypocrisy comes a lot easier to a lot of Southerners) the truth is only a distant concept. The object is to paint a picture that sounds good and sells your product no matter what the reality is. She is pretty smooth at doing this.

The other side of this is the reporters who treat her like they are at a cocktail party or applying for a job. We need to get Charles Pierce and Rude Pundit and others like that in there. The NYT reporter who said something positive about her performance is an idiot. Being good at lying and obfuscation is not an admirable trait.

She is emblematic of the smug, self-congratulatory obtuseness and towering, utterly unjustified self-regard that confers that uniquely Timesian imperviousness to criticism that has cost the NYT a whole lot of subscriptions this year. Dan Baquet’s idea of a great reporter, in other words.

She’s just so unbelievably impressed with herself and so enragingly blind to all the reasons she shouldn’t be.

She lacks Judith Miller’s integrity and shrewd judgment in gauging when she’s being played.

Yeah, that was a dig.

He should fulfill his promise to work tirelessly & unceasingly for the American public.

I’ve lived in Bedminster. It’s not the NY metro area.

Has that self-righteous organization “Judicial Watch” sued for the cost of these excursions? I didn’t think so…

Well-stated, ncsteve. Well-stated.

Let’s not forget the Interstates cleared of traffic and Apache helicopters hovering for every limo ride.

Pretty respectable. Ever roll a 300?

Maggie Haberman is such a clueless hack. I can’t believe she hasn’t already burned through whatever cred she had.

And how much money are we saving paying for SS protection for Melania and Barron while they live in New York City, and the OSG “lives” in the White House? More lies from the Misadministration…
