It's not about golf. It's not about the amount of money. It's all about his credibility. He campaigned on being different, on being anti-Washington, on being an outsider who was going to shake things up. A good chunk of people who voted for him over Clinton did so because of these reasons - he was going to be the anti-politician.
He just keeps proving time after time that it was complete and utter BS and he's as much an insider as anyone. His inner circle is just of a different ilk than most.
So ya, it's only golf and it isn't going to cause a world war. But relatively speaking, it just helps cement a precedent. Trump pulled off the biggest political magic trick of all time. And he still has a bunch of followers who refuse to take off the blinders and realize they got totally ****ing conned.
