    I can't comment on the frequency of vacations between the two as I never counted.

    I did read an article once about hotel staff saying Michelle Obama's mother is a complete and utter bitch though.
    A story like that's GOTTA be true...

    Reminds me to the GDR, when Erich Honnecker visited the FDJ. Trump uses the same scenery those ex-socialist dictators used

    Trump is scary. Vote for anyone else.

    Even a monkey would be a better president.

    It actually does, because the differance between going to a ranch in Texas and going to other places is negligible. That comment depends on the assumption that going to a ranch in Texas is lower overhead than going to anywhere else. The reality is that the cost differance is negligible. The same precaution, the same demand on the tax payer are in place. It even implies a pretty bad demand in having a president that can afford to own his own vacation spot.

    Trump had a lawsuit against a comedian for calling him the spawn of an orengutan. It was dropped, but his lawyer claimed they may return to the case later. Saying a monkey would be better is pretty silly, but avoid saying Trump is as good as a monkey if you are comedian successful enouph for Trump to find out.

    Using children that are clearly too young to hold ANY kind of educated and substantial position as political pawns is nothing short of disgusting. It speaks volumes not just about Trump, his campaign and his supporters, but also about the political climate in America that even lets this happen.

    I mean, I don't want to yammer on, but seriously, it violates every aspect of campaign decency. It's totally emotional, shallow, has no basis in any kind of policy or fact and does NOTHING to speak for why Trump is a good candidate. It's one step below distributing a flyer that states that your political enemies literally eat shit.

    Preface: I don't think fckh8 is a clever channel/series of videos. Not that I've watched much of their stuff.

    There is a huge difference between using a child to endorse a specific political party and using a child to try and demonstrate a point on a particular policy that is actually relevant to the character portrayed by the child, ie a gay kid. As questionable/confronting/whatever as that one fckh8 ad that I think you're referring to was, the two aren't even in the same ballpark.

    No, it was in a school. One of these two things is obviously worse than the other, you've chosen the wrong one.

    "Political" is a broad term, and you're deliberately skipping by the differences. Like I said, putting kids on-stage at a rally to promote a particular candidate is terrible, terrible form.

    As for funding, while I'm not super well-read on this specific site for obvious reasons, some quick googling tells me that the PAC funding deportracism.com is a specifically anti-Donald Trump one, sharing a campaign manager with a pro-Clinton one and stuff like fckh8. That's also bad, but it's a very different beast to the Clinton campaign directly acting on it or branding it - responsibilities for content change. It's still a ridiculously crappy thing to do, obviously, but it's harder to bring the blame back to a specific candidate without their name or campaign signed off on it.

    The cost will be there whether he goes to NY or Hawaii. I'm going to assume Orlong believes that story about the one time Obama went to India and it supposedly cost us billions upon billions of dollars, even though it wasn't true. But, again, according to him, it's true because Limbaugh or Palin said so.

    Im saying he should either be going to Camp David (which is already owned by the government and has accommodations for secret service and staff, or somewhere inexpensive like Montana, or Wyoming instead of the most expensive places in the US like he always does. (Marthas Vineyard, Hawwaii, etc..) They have to rent several hundred if not a thousand hotel rooms for the secret service and staff, and pay for their meals. And that adds up fast in resort areas. They can pay $485 a night on Marthas Vineyard, or $125 per night in Anchorage Alaska. OR it can be free at Camp David

    And you think Bush, with his 400+ vacation days... oh wait sorry, they aren't vacation days, according to you. Um... what do we call these then. I know, playdates. So you think Bush and his 400+ playdates cost less than the 100-125+ vacation days Obama had?

    I'm also curious if you think Obama just takes the entire day off and not doing any work? Legit question.
