TRUMP: The money pit

Well here it is not quite 100 days of Trump and already almost $100 million has been spent just on air travel for our beloved leader. More than $150,000 per day for Queen Melania to live in New York and who knows what it cost to guard and support the rest of the royal family. Surely this will be the most expensive presidency since the day of President Reagan and Queen Nancy.

Just wait until Queen Melania moves to the White House (if ever). Let’s see, new carpets, new drapes, a spa and most certainly new eight-place settings of dinnerware for 200-300. Will the service have the royal seal of “T” on them? Who knows, but you can bet they won’t be bought at Walmart.

Also there’s talk of doubling the Secret Service (can understand that), a new Air Force One (even though he said no earlier), new limousines, etc.

The Republicans talk about cutting or eliminating entitlements. That part’s true and will be taken care of soon, at the start of World War III.
