Hopefully, the same people who were up in arms about Obama's vacations costing the taxpayers so much still have arms to get up in.

Again, he could spend billions in one executive order in the White House or go play a round of golf. Choose your battle wisely, Glen.

The Secret Service budget for the year is already depleted, due largely to the trips taken by Trump and his family.

Secret Service depletes funds to pay agents because of Trump's frequent travel, large family

Secret Service Director Randolph "Tex'' Alles, in an interview with USA TODAY, said more than 1,000 agents have already hit the federally mandated caps for salary and overtime allowances that were meant to last the entire year. 

Alles said the service is grappling with an unprecedented number of White House protectees. Under Trump, 42 people have protection, a number that includes 18 members of his family. That's up from 31 during the Obama administration.

Overwork and constant travel has also been driving a recent exodus from the Secret Service ranks, yet without congressional intervention to provide additional funding, Alles will not even be able pay agents for the work they have already done.

It is kind of hilarious that he looked right up at it.  It's like, literally the only thing you're not supposed to do during an eclipse. 

Haha. 

He looked up for like a second. Such a friggin big deal. It was the top story on Google News.

I saw crowd shots from NASA's live stream, from various places, and many people were glancing up at the sky before totality, without glasses. Not for more than a second, just like Trump.

It's a total non-story, but it's Trump, so anything for the media to ridicule him.

You really don't see any humor in it ? 

Ah well.
