Secret Service nearing spending limit for protecting Trump: report | TheHill

I'm sure he and his family will suspend vacations and personal business travel so that they don't bust the budget, right?

Seriously? Wow.

Care to comment on what we should cut to pay for the protection of a man who can't keep his ass in the WH as he swore he would do on the campaign trail?

That just has to be complete BS. Obama traveled the world on vacation for 8 years and his wife and dog often took separate planes. If that didn't break the bank, nothing will.

Personally, I have thought Trump is a jackass for 35+ years.

But as a nation, I believe we owe it to ourselves to protect whoever holds the office of POTUS with whatever it takes.

Maybe Trump could pony up some of the expenses.

This is from April

The amount that is being spent is ridiculous. It is sad we have an idiot in office that doesn't look out at the cost of anything and just does whatever the hell he wants with no thought of what it is costing the people.

Who would think we would have to ask congress to put in place a budget for spending to protect the President of the United States and to ensure the budget is adhered to?

Maybe trump should have given his salary to the SS, after all they are who are keeping him safe, how much is his own butt worth to him.

I agree, but his and his family's excessive trips are creating a burden. He doesn't have to go to FL or NJ every weekend. The trump org supposedly agreed to do no foreign business deals while he's in office, but his sons are traveling all over the world scouting out opportunities.
