Trump Sets New Record As LAZIEST First-Year President Ever In a December 2017 video titled "Trump Sets New Record As LAZIEST First-Year President Ever," hosted by The Ring of Fire, host Farron Cousins discusses the significant findings regarding Donald Trump's vacation habits during his first year in office. With a mere few days left in 2017, Trump had already racked up an astonishing 112 vacation days, making him the laziest first-year president in U.S. history.

Key Highlights:​

  • Vacation Compare: To put Trump's record into perspective, Barack Obama took only 26 vacation days, and George W. Bush managed 69 during their respective first years. This begs the question of work ethic among party affiliations, with Cousins suggesting that historical patterns show Republican presidents tend to take more vacation days than their Democratic counterparts.
  • Profit Motive: A significant point raised in the video is the ethical implications of Trump’s vacation habits, particularly because he frequented properties he owns, such as Mar-a-Lago. Spending taxpayer dollars for the Secret Service to rent rooms and golf carts at his own venues raised concerns about potential financial conflicts of interest — funds that effectively flowed back into Trump’s pockets.
  • Public Sentiment: While Trump's lack of legislative activity may seem beneficial to some, Cousins argues that the cost of these vacations to the taxpayer, combined with their implications, adds layers of frustration for many citizens. The video suggests that if Trump is as wealthy as he claims, he should independently bear the costs associated with his vacations rather than milking taxpayer funds.
