Donald Trump’s five-day golf trip to Scotland is expected to cost U.S. taxpayers millions of dollars, according to a new report. This trip will mark the president’s fifth international trip since beginning his second term in January.
In his second term, the President has made more visits to his golf courses than he did in his first term, according to an ethics watchdog.
