According to records newly released by Congress, Trump Hotels and Properties charged the Secret Service as much as five times more than the government rate.

Apparently he’s conned $400 million from his Gullibles!
The world needs strong and ethical leaders who understand that leadership is a responsibility, not a perk to exploit or an ego boost!

That's why he 'didn't take a salary', he knew the grift was going to make up for it.

So, why did the Secret Service pay a charge so far over the government rate?

[davidtaliaferro]

Why is this a thing NOW??? This was revealed years ago and nobody cared.

[margaretscranton]

Another law suit? Unbelievable he's not faced accountable

Why didn't the SS object to the charges, it was a luxury hotel.

Well (cant believe Im saying this), the benefit of the doubt needs to be given. There was ONE example of a 5x rate. $1.4M doesn't sound like much if its for hundreds of days of rooms. WHAT WAS THE AVERAGE???? More details needed - and I fear because they havent been given, this might be blown WAY out of proportion

[helostgetoverit]

He should be ordered to pay back all but whatever the standard/reasonable amount would’ve been. And the rest must NOT go to tRump! This is covered by the Emollients clause? The president can NOT profit from his office
