Trump has spent an incredible amount of taxpayer money golfing in his first month as US President.

US President has already spent $10.7 million of taxpayer money to play golf since returning to the White House last month, despite his and Elon Musk’s ongoing war on wasteful spending by government agencies. The president has spent all four weekends on the green since being sworn in for the second time at a high-profile inauguration ceremony on January 20.

According to a report in HuffPost, Trump played golf at his own properties on nine of his first 30 days in office. Based on a 2019 report by the Government Accountability Office, HuffPost has calculated that the cost of these excursions has been around $10.7 million.
