New Yorkers are paying the price now. The local businesses are losing money every single day. When in history has a First Lady lived separately from the president in the most expensive city in the country at taxpayer's expense? New Yorkers cannot drive through, local businesses are being blocked off. They are not royalty! If Trump's own business was being effected this way, he would sue everyone. In fact I would not be surprised if Trump didn't bill the country for his own loss of business due to his own family's security! There is a very good reason why so many are signing that petition.

He'll make up for losing tenants by rent I'd two whole floors to the Secret Service:

True.

But it absolutely does warm one's heart to see the complete about face that the conservative family values folks have had considering that they took great issue with Harvard law graduate Michelle Obama showing her beautiful arms in a sleeveless dress. They've come so far that they are now embracing a Slovenian college dropout soft core lesbian porn performer as the "ideal" woman that ALL of the daughters of the Grand Ole Party should emulate.

It's that it's Melania Trump that ticks them off and that's what makes them hypocrites.
And reportedly Melania and Barron will remain in NYC only until the end of his current school year, then they will move to the WH.

Is Trump going to pay for that security? Is Trump going to reimburse the losses by local businesses and the inconvenience of workers in the area for her indulgence? Kids change schools. She is not special.

What would be your opinion if they continued to live in the Trump tower for the entire four years? Want to get it on record.

If it were Trump, he'd sue the city, state and country. It's not surprising that a 100K have already signed the petition for her to leave.

^^^^This!
