You did. I mentioned several recent ones and attempted to point out this is nothing new. Regean, Bush, Clinton, Obama. All modern Presidents.

Seriously, Jimbo. On a constant weekend basis? Did Michelle and the kids go live somewhere else and Obama go visit them on weekends?

What other modern president has done this? This attitude of "I won't be at the White House on the weekends; I'll be at Trump Tower."

Really, Mr. Trump? Are you going to pick up the tab for security instead of the people in New York? :roll:

$35 million? Really? TF they usin to protect him? A tank? It shouldn't even cost $1 million. That's bull**** money-grubbing.

That aside, Hillary seems to have trouble paying out of her campaign war chest for a few thousand dollars, let alone millions of dollars out of her own pocket.

Des Moines Police Department waiting on a check from Hillary | New York Post

WASHINGTON — Hillary Clinton has raised $130 million for her presidential campaign — but she apparently has trouble paying a few thousand dollars for Iowa security.

Law enforcement officials say the Democratic front-runner owes $1,800 to the Des Moines Police Department for her Oct. 24 Katy Perry concert and campaign event, WHOtv.com reported.

Police in Marshalltown, Iowa, also say they’re waiting on $2,700 from Clinton for overtime at two events — a Jan. 15 rally with Bill Clinton and a Jan. 26 stop for the former secretary of state.

Looks like just another fake news story to hate on Trump. Nothing to see here folks, move along.

That's not helping New York pay for a second residence for the President. Trump has the White House. I hope he picks up the tab for this.

No Maggie because he didn't go stay there numerous times (weekends and whenever he felt like it) like Trump wants to do. They are actually prepping for this.

Oh, OK...so you're only holding Trump to this standard, not Obama. Glad that was cleared up.

No, but that's not the point. We protect our Presidents and their families wherever they happen to be. And that's a good thing.

We don't know how much time the not yet President will spend where. It's all speculation.

:shrug: and when it comes to costs, vacationing in Hawaii, or Europe, versus a ranch that you own and that is fairly isolated are not comparable.


So.... you gonna point us to those posts of you complaining about Obama's expenses?




Hey, if it bothers you, just close your eyes and think about how, due to the keynesian multiplier factor, Trump is actually creating a lot of jobs for New Yorkers by forcing their government to spend money ;). As I recall from the debates circa 2009, this should actually net benefit New York, no? :)

Yeah. Great point. The cost of security for two residences and those vacations that Trump will take like most other presidents do will add up.

that could be seen as treason.

Only treason if they help a foreign enemy in some sort of collusion type thing.

one thing I probably due know is that the SS is glad Clinton didn't win. from all reports she was a monster the last time she was there.

It's even in an official FBI FOIA report that she was so horrible that the position of guarding her, that used to be something reserved for only senior people, turned into something they gave the newbies.

But once again, one state, one city, is picking up the tab for most of this. Do you understand?

Did he go there every weekend like Donald Trump says he plans on doing at Trump Tower?

Has Trump been at Trump towers every weekend as president?

If Trump cared about New York, he'd pick his house in Florida to go to.

Here we go. Now the people in Florida can complain about his third residency and security. Maybe taxpayers can rent out the White House to pay for this?

Did obama go to his home every weekend like Trump says he plans too? You guys would flip your panties if obama did that. Not only that The businesses in that area are affected each time he visited. You condone that each weekend? Guess trump is showing how much he pisses on small business owners.
Click to expand...

I would imagine his visits back to NYC would bring commerce right along with him. 'Course seeing it's a Sanctuary City, they probably need extra security.

Does Obama pay for his added security when he and/or his family take a vacation? When he was campaigning for the Democratic Party? For Hillary Clinton? Did he pay for his traveling security? Is he paying in Hawaii this week? When Michelle Obama was on the campaign trail, did she pay for her security? On the Oprah Winfrey Show, did she pay for her security? Does he present First Family reimburse cities for their extra security? While he lives in Washington, DC will he and Michelle share the SS? Will their added security in Washington DC collapse DCs economy? Will the first family each have their own team? Will they pay for their security during the rest of their lives? Their children's lives?

How about Hillary Clinton? Did she pay the Cities she campaigned in during the last over-a-year campaigning? Did she destroy the small business economy of those cities she visited? Did she reimburse those cities for their added expenses? How about Bill Clinton? Did he do the same? How many SS agents follow him around while he cavorts with ***** Galores? Is he destroying the economy of the town he lives in? Is she destroying the economy of the town SHE lives in? Are they reimbursing those cities and towns? How about Chelsea? Her husband? Her children? When they travel, do they reimburse the cities they visit? Destroy the economies?

Oh, the HUMANITY!! I can hardly stand thinking about it!!

Question. Has any President in the past been the head of a mega corporation like Donald Trump?
Click to expand...

What has that got to do with spending all of New York's money on him?

Alexander Hamilton was the head of a mega corporation, as were several of the founding fathers... with out them there's have been no money to get the revolution off the ground.

Trump's out of his element now and New York needs the bucks. So Trump should really consider how much of our president he's going to be.

Yeah, the histrionics, the ad Hitlerums, and the electron-microscope-level nitpicking do get the eyes rolling uncontrollably.

Trump's a lifelong NYC liberal. His administration will likely reflect that more than not.

Obama is going to have a house in California( the retirement home)*and*plans to keep a residence un DC for a time (For daughters school).*Are you also concerned about the security tab on Obama's dueling homes?
 
Bob N said:
No. You don't get it. His wife and youngest son is staying at Trump Tower and the Donald is going to that place on weekends.

that has nothing to do with the OP.
If he does that then that is what happens. It hasn't happened yet.

NY can't request money for something that hasn't occurred.

Umm no. purposely endangering the president or president elect could be considered treason it doesn't take a foreign enemy.

yep. I am sure they had a ton of senior people wanting to quit or be moved. Bill wasn't so bad but she was just horrible to them.
Sorry but you should have the utmost respect and honor for someone that is there to not only protect you but give their life if it calls for it.
