Good for them. I would love to have a vacation home like that. As it is we would love to get a lake home but we're waiting for the prices to drop a little bit. I'm sure the girls will love visiting there.

Every president goes back home when he's finished. Not Obama. He's still playing politics and now is going to own his second home in the DC area. I guess Chicago isn't good enough.

I’ve never been. But I remember from watching “Wings” that it was a top notch location for vacation homes.

Yep
And Martha’s Vineyard is beautiful.
I’m happy for them!

But Obama begrudge's everyone else their wealth. He demanded we "spread it around" remember? Now he owns 2 mansions. He's just like the rest of them. Bernie doesn't want you to be wealthy. But he can be. AOC doesn't want you fly in airplanes, while she's flying all over the country in a private jet. They are so hypocritical it's laughable.

Yeah, there's nothing new under the sun with that. This whole post is about how Obama did or did not donate such and such money and Trump did or did not donate such and such money, as if that makes a difference towards whether they are justified in having expensive homes or other expensive things.

They are justified in having expensive homes and expensive things because its their money and they should be able to spend it how they want to without judgment from everyone else. Or from each other. Both of them.

Have any of them say that the rich shouldn’t keep their money? Because Bernie has and Obama use to talk about the rich too. I guess it’s okay for them and Hollywood to be rich but it’s bad for anyone else?

It’s do as a say not as a do. I think it’s funny that Bernie was questioned on why he didn’t pay more taxes like the tax plan he wanted for millionaires and billionaires he said he paid what he was suppose to. 🙄
