Why is it acceptable for the president to use taxpayer money to fly overseas and cut a ribbon at his own golf course?

Don’t normalize this abuse of office. It’s blatant corruption.

I love how Trump waits for his caddie to toss the new ball on the ground before getting out of his cart so that he can pretend he just located it.
