Trump's all about cutting the fat, except when it comes to abusing government services provided to him and his family.
I don't necessarily agree with them, but many people are saying that this might not be a bad thing...
I'm sure there is a budget item of free lunches for poor kids somewhere that we can cut to pay for Trump's security.
He is President of the United States, there is no excuse to not have sufficient funds set aside to pay for protecting him.
"Ongoing issue for nearly a decade" is a funny way of saying "an issue that began under the Obama administration".
Yes and no. I was pretty shocked by how many people we are protecting. Obviously Trump's family is bigger, and were living in separate households really raising the cost, and that isn't his fault (other than his wife & son being in Trump tower). What bothers me is the government basically requires the Secret Service to work for free (I'm sure they'll get backpay for it though) and that so much of what they have to spend is to house agents at properties owned by the President.
Stop bailing out failing institutions like the secret service. Let's go to a capitalist model where the president hires his own secret service. Capitalism good. Reagan smash!
Trump is a rich rich boy. You wouldn't believe it. He's getting paid $1 for his salary, right? He also should charge $1 for his expenses.
