I'm sure he and his family will suspend vacations and personal business travel so that they don't bust the budget, right?
I doubt it but more money for taxpayers to pay out.

No doubt policy of just what members of a family get protected while doing what should have been reviewed long ago. But in fairness, I believe when/if it's done the results should not apply until the next presidential election.

Amazing, isn't it? There isn't a lib on here that doesn't want Trump dead or impeached. Instead they whine about the Secret Service

No one is bitching about the SS, FUNDING and SPENDING are the topic.

No one I know wants him assassinated. That would make him a martyr.

The state senator who posted the comment should be forced to step down.

Impeachment is a legal, Constitutional process.

It's the cons we see here talking about an illegal rebellion should that happen.

Why did Mr. Obama need protection? After all, all his supporters should have been taking care of their Golden Boy, isn't this correct? Do you think Mr. Obama overspent much of the funds during all his vacations and parties away from the WH?

in the interest of fiscal cooperation, I would be willing to lend President Guffaw one of my "Cloaks of Invisibility" and we could just reassign the Secret Service Agents to more important matters such as counterfeit MLS ticket frauds
