Trump is wasting massive amounts of time and taxpayer money to stay at his failing golf property in Doonbeg, Ireland.
Before leaving for his embarrassing trip to Europe, Trump claimed that he is staying at his failing Trump International Hotel and golf course in Doonbeg, Ireland, because it's "convenient."
"We're going to be staying at Doonbeg in Ireland because its convenient and it's a great place. But it's convenient," Trump said.
It's not convenient at all. In fact, Trump is traveling hundreds of miles out of his way just to force taxpayers to foot the bill for him and his family to stay at a Trump property, according to a Wednesday Washington Post report.
Trump's travel schedule "requires flying hundreds of miles west to Ireland, then hundreds more miles back east to France," reports the Post. After Trump's visit to France to commemorate the 75th anniversary of D-Day, Trump will go back to Doonbeg before flying back to the United States the next day.

"So I got to ask Eric Trump a question as the Trumps did a pub crawl thru Doonbeg is his trip a good use of US taxpayer money?" Nuala McGovern reported on Twitter. "We're just trying to have a good time," Eric Trump replied, before ducking into a pub surrounded by Secret Service agents.
Trump and his family traveled hundreds of miles out of the way so taxpayers could prop up a failing Trump property and so that Trump's kids could have a good time partying in Irish pubs.
Yet somehow, Trump wants everyone to believe that he did it for "convenience."
