CBS News
With Eric Trump’s trip to the United Kingdom this week, the international hotel and car rental costs for the Secret Service agents who protect him and his brother Donald Trump Jr. have topped $190,000 since January 1st, according to a review of purchasing orders by CBS News.


All of those bills are paid by taxpayers.



Secret Service costs for Trump family protection continue to mount


American taxpayers are financing this mob-family's enrichment, how's that for MORONIC!

Still wont be voting for democrats who want to invite the invaders & destroy us like the European leadership. Trump can buy bird feeders for entire country with my tax dollars but I will NEVER elect leaders who will sneak in traitors into the country.

I hear about this a lot. That it cost X thousands to have security for X event. I'm not saying I'm happy with this because it's coming from tax payers. But could these police forces that end up providing the extra security be price gouging? I mean when extra security is needed at Trump Tower for his wife. I wonder if that's all OT wages and the city is charging as much as they can even more than another person?

Yes, really. The only ones paying attention to this non-issue are the ones desperately looking for some more mud to fling. We have much more important issues in this country -- surely we can find something more significant to talk about?


And how much is it costing to protect other living presidents? Including Obama, Bush and Clinton? Somehow that never gets mentioned.

Right...

Sneaking in traitors? So you think some 5 year old from Syria who's trying to escape a civil war is a traitor to the US, but an administration stuffed with paid foreign agents and a president who openly attempts to collude with a foreign power are not...

Spare me the BS.

Whatever happened to no new deals and the investigation into the conflicts of interests? This is downright ridiculous that we tax payers are actually enabling the conflicts of interests.

And to those who don't care about this issue, the "party over country" mentality is hurting us all and not making America GREAT again. Wake up already.

Money will be funneled from much needed programs to cover the SS cost so we all lose in one way or another.

These fools spending for lunch what the majority of Americans try to live off of for a year is pretty sad.

All of those bills are paid by taxpayers.


Documents for Eric Trump’s trip this week to Dublin show that $4,029.85 was spent on limousines for his visit and $11,261 to cover the hotel costs of the Secret Service agents who protect him.


The trips by the Trump sons are to promote Trump-branded properties in those countries. According to an analysis by the Economist magazine, the Trump Organization’s international deals account for less than 10 percent of the company’s value.

Yet you gladly paid the secret service costs for Malia's trip to Bolivia and Peru for 2 months.

Stop the fake outrage.


Quote:
Malia Obama, 18, former President Barack Obama's eldest daughter, made a secret educational trip to Bolivia and Peru in late November, according to NYT.


"She was very humble, chatty, spoke Spanish very well," tour guide Gregorio Mamani told the Times via a phone interview. "She was mesmerized by the Bolivian landscape."


Malia Obama – with bodyguards and a "blond companion" mistakenly thought to be the dignitary American Embassy officials told the guides would join the trek through the Cordillera Real mountains – was offered no special treatment and did chores with her fellow hikers, Mamani added.
