Donald Trump’s golf habit has now cost U.S. taxpayers at least $101.2 million in travel and security expenses since his return to office, a figure that’s already two-thirds of his first-term total for golf. This puts him on track to spend a whopping $300 million by the end of his second term. It’s something else to see the president arrive at his golf course in West Palm Beach, Florida, marking his 56th visit there since his January 2025 inauguration.
According to HuffPost, he’s now spent 110 days on a golf course he owns. This milestone comes at a pretty tough time. Gas prices nationwide have surged by roughly 80 cents a gallon in just a month, a consequence of the United States–Israeli war on Iran. In the last week, the White House has been reviewing a Pentagon request for about $200 billion to support new military action.
