Washington, D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser flew in a donor’s private plane to Augusta, Georgia, on April 13
Democrat Washington, D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser has faced the ire of critics over the past week for taking a private jet to The Masters golf tournament as violent crime continues to plague her city.
Bowser, who is now dealing with an approval rating in free-fall, traveled with a senior adviser on a jet belonging to Jodie McClean, a real estate executive and donor to the mayor’s campaign, more than 500 miles away to Augusta, Georgia, for the tournament on April 13.
Bowser initially faced criticism for traveling to The Masters at all on the taxpayers’ dime, but once news broke she took a private jet — although the cost was covered by McClean — critics took to social media to express their frustrations.
To be honest, she does just as much for DC when she’s not there.
