Does Trump think he is a King?

The common refrain from republicans during Obama’s administration was his signed oh so many executive orders that he was acting like a king (despite the fact that he signed LESS executive orders than any two term president in US history). That he golfed so much that he was acting like royalty traveling on the taxpayer’s dime.

Yet trump signed 75 executive orders as of June 1st. That is already more than Obama signed in his first 2 whole years in office and we still have 6 months to go.

Trump has had 110 golf outings since he took office. He has gone to a trump owned golf course every 4.7 days since he took office. Yet him and other republicans heavily criticized Obama’s for spending all his time playing golf.



Yet, at his current rate, he will play more golf in 4 years than Obama did in 8 years.

His golf outings are exclusively at trump owned resorts and will cost the taxpayers $100 million dollars before the end of the year...already more than Obama spent in 8 years. Let’s not forgot that a huge chunk of that is going directly in trump’s pocket from charging WH support staff for room and services while on these trips.

So where is all that outrage and indignation from republicans now? Hmmmm? Hello? Hello? Where is that republican moral certainty. Where are those fiscal conservatives at now? Well?

Nothing.

Republicans are as pathetic as they are sad.

Worthless and without honor.

A true embarrassment to humanity.

Republicans, your new emperor has no clothes.

1. Kings today don't have the power they once did, thanks to constitutional monarchies.

2. It is called projection, republicans project their own weaknesses on the democrats.

Yes, he thinks he is king, he is not mentally sound, that is apparent.

Much less, how they have convinced half the nation that they are the party of Christ. Their values are not anything close to the values of Christ that I learned as a child. We should all be horrified that the Jones/Moore race was even close! WTF America?
