Article says probably even higher as this is an estimate from costs from 8 years ago.

So 26 million for one man to play golf, but we don't have enough for Meals on Wheels?

Years ago, I played way too much golf. Towards the end of the season, I played with a friend. When I told him how much I'd played that year, he looked at me aghast and said, "You played that much and you still suck?"
In addition to being a terrible person, Trump is a terrible golfer. He's also a cheater.

Great point when the MAGA blather on about him 'donating' his salary.
That more than $26 million figure is based on 2017 costs, which are almost certainly higher today.
During his first term, Trump’s insistence on playing golf at his own resorts cost taxpayers a total of $151.5 million, with Trump spending 293 days on one of his courses over those four years.

Why aren’t our Democratic representatives screaming this from one coast to the other. Talk about a useable sound bite.
