Donated his salary I’m sure he’s super concerned about making that $3.00 on a glass of water. Good investigative work business insider. Amazing article!

this is low hanging media. unfollow

Love you Mr President realDonaldTrump, ill pay $100 for the water!

bullshit

That is cheaper than what the theme parks charged me!

If you guys think this is bad you should see AMC theaters.

Look at him drinking that water with both of his stupid little hands on the glass like a toddler 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Was that charge more or less than what they used to charge before he was president? The 'millions' you claim he's made; what would have the revenue been if he wasn't president? Are you also calculating all of the revenue he didn't earn by not pursuing foreign investments ?

Disney charged me $18.90 for 3 bottles of water......in their resort....I guess everything Trump do is more wrong than others...lol....dam....people really hate this man.....lol

He is literally treating the presidency as a bank account and the tax payers are the ones keeping it topped up. Absolute fucking joke!

Who cares.

Business man always go to his own buildings and places that built, just like Trump. To keep the money going and growing.

This picture cracks me up every time! Don’t stop at the water, look into the other excess charges this administration and former administrations have allowed. NBC News used to do a segment called “The Fleecing of America’s” that uncovered all kind of waste.

Anybody who supports this president is morally bankrupt

There are water restrictions due to drought.

Republicans think this is fine.

Well of course. It’s the best water. The most wettest water. Lemon wedge extra$$. We call it the secret service combo.

What a joke. realDonaldTrump is using his presidency to make a profit! He doesn’t care about what happens to US citizens!

Not surprised...he’s been using our government as his piggy bank.

Business insider should be maybe talking about business and not a $3 bottle of water at Mar-A-Lago, there's this other thing out right now called Hunter biden's laptop little bit more interesting!!!!!!!!! QUIT PRETENDING IT DOES NOT EXIST!

Why is he holding the glass like that? Weird.

For a whole party (Republicans) who argues that the deficit is through the roof but turns a blind eye to $3.00 glasses of water on tax payer money is exactly why democrats should steamroll the GOP when they gain control of the senate, keep the house, and Biden is in command.

Wow. This is where I draw the line. On November 3rd my vote is now going to Jorgensen4POTUS.

Oh gawd this is pretty damning , he’s doomed now for sure — make sure we circulate this article about a high end resort charging for water :0 this will be the nail in the coffin for him

So fcking what ?

No wonder he is so careful with it.

Thats what you get with short term vision .... Grab grab grab

Bottled water into a glass or tap water?

Tap water no doubt

This entire presidency is just one big grift. Anyone who can’t see that has to be wearing partisan horse blinders.

He looks like a rodent in that pic.
