How well is your outrage managing to change the law that determines who should have security details?

For all the complaining people have done, I've seen no effort from people to make changes in this area. So hopefully you can tell me about how you're lobbying your legislators and getting other people to do the same...

DP. Melania and Barron absolutely should have security details. However, it is irresponsible of her to keep a separate residence, thereby incurring such a large expenditure on her security detail. It is irresponsible of Trump to allow and encourage it. He seeks to make money by charging rent at the Trump Tower but does not seek to save government money by forbidding the separate residence.

Correct. It's adorable that Trumpsters believe that his staff is small because he's economizing. Is there anything he says that you won't believe?

The only people who want to work there are third string hacks and those with family connections.

Or Sarah Huckabee who is both.

A donation like this would mean more if it did not come from an apparent draft-dodger.

Our veterans Deserve the best kept cemeteries in the world...NOT JUST THE USA! ALSO don't forget PRESIDENT DONALD J TRUMP donated his first paycheck to the National Parks Service so you and others could enjoy well kept national parks. http://insider.foxnews.com/2017/04/03/donald-trump-donates-salary-national-park-service-first-quarter-2017 This is COMPLETELY CONTRARY TO THE OBUMMERS WHO WASTED 85 MILLION DOLLARS OF TAXPAYER MONEY ON PERSONAL VACATIONS IN ONLY 8 YEARS...WOW! http://www.mcclatchydc.com/news/politics-government/white-house/article123335079.html

What makes you think he did? Fortunately, there's an easy and traditional way to answer this question once and for all. Namely, Trump can release his tax returns, just like every other president (and presidential candidate) has done for decades.

That was his only public return which is pre-his-Russia entanglements.

That is why Trump leaked it.

His cuts in WH staff are going to save millions as well.

This would be more meaningful if the Trump budget proposal didn't slash $1.2B from the DOI budget. This is yet another shiny thing for the Trumpkins to stare at.

And your opinion about Jared and Ivanka?

It's nice to know you think the patriarch should have the power to force everyone in his family to behave.

I think children and mothers might have different opinions from fathers, and fathers shouldn't have the right to dictate what the mother chooses to do.
