WaPo: Room rentals, resort fees and furniture removal: How Trump’s company charged the U.S. government more than $900,000
The president has taken other actions that have shattered his early promise to ‘completely isolate’ himself from his business.
The Post writes, “Federal spending records show that taxpayers have paid Trump’s businesses more than $900,000 since he took office.”
When VP Pence went to @realdonaldtrump’s Las Vegas hotel in 2017, the Secret Service rented 151 rooms over a wk.
Trump Org added “resort fees” to the agents’ bills: $29 per room, per night.
