<sigh>

Looks like you need another lesson hap.

How many hotels have you stayed at that cost $650 per night?

Of course the secret service stays wherever the president stays. They even go ahead of time to make sure it’s safe.


From the article at the link below:

Trump’s company has previously insisted that it always charges friendly rates to Secret Service staff when they are made to accompany the president to his properties

Does $650 per night sound friendly to you?


Another staggering bill was reportedly presented to the Secret Service for the privilege of staying at the Trump National Golf Club at Bedminster, where it was charged $17,000 a month to use a cottage on the New Jersey property in 2017. That’s several times above the standard rent in the area, and Trump was reportedly only there a third of the time during the billed month.

Was Eric lying when he said this?

Despite that, the receipts do show that some statements from the Trump Organization have been misleading. In an interview with Yahoo Finance last year, Trump Organization Executive Vice President Eric Trump said: “If my father travels, they stay at our properties for free... If he stays at one of his places, the government actually spends, meaning it saves a fortune because if they were to go to a hotel across the street, they’d be charging them $500 a night, whereas, you know we charge them, like $50.”[/i]
