Trump is benefiting financially by playing and campaigning on his properties, since he's been in office he's done nothing but campaign and play, if it's not golf, it's playing on his phone. Let's get a President in the United States who does his job as an adult representing the citizens of this country, and putting America first over personal money interests. Where are the Trump Party republicans on this, are they all just fine with paying taxes so the conman in the white house can play and fatten his wallet?

Another Trip To Bedminster Means More Taxpayer And Donor Money In Trump’s Pocket
The president is back at his New Jersey golf resort, bringing his taxpayer-paid golf tab to $142 million.
WASHINGTON ― President Donald Trump returned to his New Jersey golf course Friday to host a campaign event, meaning yet more donor and tax dollars flowing into his own cash registers.
Trump frequently criticized his predecessor, Barack Obama, for playing too much golf, and promised during his campaign that he would be too busy to take any time off. “I just want to stay in the White House and work my ass off,” he said at a February 2016 rally.
Trump, however, has played golf on 2½ times as many days as Obama did through the same point in his term, and Trump’s golf outings have cost more than four times as much as Obama’s. The significantly higher expenses are due to Trump’s insistence on playing at his own resorts, while Obama played most of his rounds at military bases within short motorcade rides of the White House.
Trump has already spent 268 days on golf courses that he owns in his 1,303 days in office, of which 85 have been at Bedminster.
