The former White House ethics chief is sarcastically proposing a Golf on Your Own Damn Dime Act of 2019.

Walter Shaub , who served under President Barack Obama before leaving his post a few months after Donald Trump took office in 2017, pitched the mock law in response to Trumps record number of golf trips to his own resort properties even during official trips abroad.

The taxpayer tab for presidents pricey golf outings is now up to nearly $106 million, according to a HuffPost analysis . But whats unique for a golfing president is that Trump owns the resorts hes visiting, so the publicly funded trips also serve to finance and advertise his private businesses.

Shaubs facetious new act would require any POTUS to pay for all costs for a golf outing incurred by the entourage from the minute he/she left the White House until he/she is back inside the White House.

The tab for Trumps visit earlier this week to his golf resort in Doonbeg in Ireland at least $3.6 million was particularly steep because he brought along a substantial entourage following his official state visit in London. The club used Trumps stay to try to drum up business for the money-losing operation by tweeting about his visit something the Trump Organization had pledged would never happen because of ethics concerns. The golf course removed the tweets following questions about them from HuffPost.
