That's right, Mr. and Ms. US Taxpayer. You are spending like drunken republicons to keep the G.O.P. billionaire out on the links enjoying gourmet luxury golffe (and meals) at your expense.
Maybe you should sit down at the kitchen table, take a good look at your finances, and ask whether you can afford to keep up this flashy, flamboyant excess. I mean, take a good sober look at your budget.
Maybe you could cut back on food or gasoline or clothing, and thereby make more money available to ship off to Washington via taxes so the republicon billionaires can maintain the luxury lifestyles they have become accustomed to? Think about it. I mean, what kind of American are you?

P.S. Don't forget to mail your quarterly tax payments.

What's not to love?

"As the Senate wrestled with whether to begin debate on President Donald Trump's megabill, a few key Republican allies spent part of the afternoon golfing with the president at his nearby club in Northern Virginia.
"Trump, CIA Director John Ratcliffe and GOP Sens. Eric Schmitt of Missouri, Rand Paul of Kentucky and Lindsey Graham of South Carolina played golf a few hours before the Senate voted to debate the so-called 'Big Beautiful Bill.'"

(7,591 posts)Asking for all my billionaire republicon pals, who are worried
that if there's no LUXURY GOLF LINE ITEM, they might some day have to pay for their own luxurious Gourmet Goofing.
I mean, think about what happened the Last Time we had a casino-hustling felon in the White House:
During his first term, he (Krasnov) golfed a total 293 days (20%), costing US taxpayers $151.5 million.
$1.75 million of that went to deluxe Secret Service accommodations, being charged the
extreme highest special soak-the-suckers rate at Trump-owned properties.

Stop grumbling. It's unpatriotic.
After all, the republicon billionaires would genuinely like to thank you US taxpayers for your generosity,
But they won't because, frankly, they think you are a bunch of "suckers and losers - and thanking you would not accord with republicon family values.
