Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) knocked President Trump on Monday for the cost she said his golf trips carry for U.S. taxpayers.
Waters said that Trump criticized former President Obama for golfing, but that Trump's trips to the course have cost millions.
“Remember Trump’s criticism of Obama golfing? The cost of Trump’s golfing is now $108M,†Waters tweeted, though she did not cite a report behind the dollar figure.
Huffpost reported Friday that Trump’s golf outings during his tenure in the White House have cost taxpayers more than $108 million, largely due to travel and security costs.
“Big spender Trump, disregarding the national debt only adds to his dishonesty. Trump should have been impeached a long time ago.â€
