Yep. And it's not like Eric's Dad can't afford to reimburse the government. But NO, he's squeezing this job for every penny.

Well, let us know when the costs go over the $85 million the Obama's pissed away on their little excursions.

Further, there is nothing "impeachable" about this, contrary to what the BS liberal article says. It's also false that the taxpayers paid for the trip. They didn't. The costs were for Secret Service expenses, something he is entitled to and something he needs for protection from the lunatics and terrorists on the left.

If you're going to post flame-bait, which this clearly is, as least get the facts straight.

Yes. But was this trip in our interest or was it for a private business?

While noting one's hypocrisy is valid, if it's wrong, it's wrong correct? Something isn't wrong because of how others react to it, but from how you believe it to be.

Do you support the taxpayers being on the hook for politicians traipsing around the globe or not?

Plus--until we see his tax returns, I doubt he's contributing at all to the taxpayer's burden of his family. I noticed Melania had no problem jetting down to Palm Beach this weekend, though she can't make it to Washington. What are we paying for her lifestyle?

In addition, we pay for Donny Jr's trips, Tiffany's trips, Ivanka and Jared's trips? This family is costing the country an outrageous amount of money. Trump makes a big deal out of donating his salary to the treasury? That's a drop in the bucket compared to what the country is paying to support his family's lifestyle.

Really laughable that those who howled about the Obama's two-week summer vacation in Massachusetts have no problem with the hundreds of thousands the Trump family is costing the country.
