Bagley Cartoon: Mar-a-Lago a Go-Go!

http://www.sltrib.com/opinion/5179391-155/bagley-cartoon-mar-a-lago-a-go-go

The Right went nuts every time Obama went on vacation. But when Trump is on pace to spend twenty times what Obama did using taxpayer money that will go directly into Trump's pockets, they're strangely silent. Couldn't possibly have anything to do skin color.

Future scandals should end in 'Lago' (Mar-a-)Lago instead of 'gate' (Water)gate.

Not Russia-gate. Russia-Lago.

It's time for an updated suffix.

that even Republicans have had to notice. Not only does it cost millions to fly him there with his entourage of relatives and sycophants, he's charging exorbitant golf cart rentals to his Secret Service agents, exorbitant room costs to house them close enough to offer protection, and exorbitant meal tabs. He's making out like a bandit at Mar-a-Loco and a bandit is what he's always been.

I'm surprised he didn't make the Secret Service cough up a few million for memberships at that overdone new money playground.

Appoint the swampiest characters you can find to head the agencies that you want to bring down? DONE

Bring nepotism and cronyism to a height only seen on banana (and soviet-style) countries? DONE

Raid the coffers of the country to pay for patently obvious floutings of common sense? DONE

Every absurd and outlandish activity of the nit is just another insult to the fabric of the country. Totally part of the script for the repuglican congress. Unfortunately too many democrats are afraid, easily out-maneuvered, and ineffective.

So, anyone want to guess what replaces this pseudo-democratic country?
Something totally controlled by banking and corporate and international interests?
Good guess!
