And why didn’t they begin this investigation in April when the House of started theirs?

It’s not just Turnberry, The Trump Organization is in a partnership with the airport that has been getting all of our refueling money.

This airport has been dying financially. Trump needs it for Turnberry guests. The Air Force is buying huge amounts of fuel there from the airport. That’s the real story, not the overnights at the resort.

This.

It raises the question of how much time Trump is spending concentrating on his business affairs vs national / international affairs.

Except you can go on Expedia or any other booking site and see that is false.

Because that’s how the military books these things

That’s less than what I’m paying at the Hampton Inn for my high school reunion.

That's the government rate, it's not what Trump's hotel charges.

Does the person who planned your reunion own that hotel? And specifically choose it, and force the planning committee to go along, though there were more convenient and less expensive options nearby? If no, then this is not an apr comparison.

Needs to be an investigation and some policy changes for the military.

I think we simply need to have legislation that bans the federal government from purchasing goods and services from a private entity the President owns or has a significant interest in. If the President had significant stock holdings in companies the federal government routinely does business with (energy, defense, natural resources) he would have to sell it.

One distant cousin who runs a bar. If great grandmother was from there, then at best 3rd cousin. Given larger family sizes (especially Catholics up through the time Pence was born) he easily has several hundred third cousins. How many has he visited? If family genealogy is important he can take a private vacation to connect with his fellow descendants or have a reunion--hey, he could have the reunion at Trump International!

That’s not what’s said above. See bolded.
