Trump's shutdown golf trip pushes taxpayer tab soaring to staggering new heights [View all]

Donald Trump isn't about to let the impending hunger of millions of Americans impede his golf game.
The Huffington Post reported that the president "marked the first full month of the ongoing government shutdown Friday by blaming it all on Democrats and taking a $3.4 million golf trip to Florida, bringing the total that taxpayers have spent on his hobby to $60.7 million since he retook the presidency in January."
The report also teed up this eye-popping scorecard.
