He didnt want to. But he IS REQUIRED BY LAW TO DO SO.

Required to do what? I see he is not allowed to pay for any SS needs for his protection out of his own pocket, but I'd like to see the law that says he has to lease them golf carts that he owns and likely profits from.

Cause if they weren’t charged for, that would be his paying out of his own pocket.

Then the loons would be wailing about emoluments or taking illegal gifts or something else.

Maybe that’ll get him impeached.

Do we buckle?!?

Well he could go to Camp David and then the government would have to pay for a bunch of golf carts and maintain them themselves.

I bet he also charges even if they only get one scoop of ice cream.

Oh knock it the **** off!

The point is that they don't have to lease them from trump. They could get them from somewhere else...or the corrupt POS could simply stop staying at almost nothing but his own properties. I remember a short time ago when you guys seemed to care about ethics.

BUT MUH ETHICS!!! LMAO

And spare me your belief that those photos you provided are some common occurrence and apply to an entire party. I'm sure you don't want me to show a photo of the tiki parade and claim that represents the entire Republican party, right?

sure, go ahead, because the tiki torch parade was supported and sponsored by Republicans right? I mean, the whitehouse under oblunder was never colored in rainbow colors right? democrats are aligned so much closer to the alphabet soup community and their yearly, sanctioned by democrats parade than Republicans are aligned to a once in a lifetime parade that was never sanctioned by any government republicans.

Wait Trump's lining his pockets? Didn't he refuse a salary and since being sworn in has lost $200 million in worth. Most politicians make money while in office.

Salary is peanuts compared to the kickbacks this guy is getting.

Sorry. Misspoke. $600 million. But he's getting kickbacks.

Because it is a cost... If he gave them the golf carts he'd be paying out of his own pocket.

So he shouldn't stay at his own properties?

Will the Space Army be able to see Trump's wall from space. Thats what Im wondering.

Ethics? Is that like warning criminals that the cops are coming so you put the officers in danger as well as the citizens.
