We all know about Mar-a-Lago and the money taxpayers are shoveling into the Trump business coffers there. But guess what? You and I will also be fronting the bill for Donald Trump’s Bedminster, New Jersey residence as well. Guess what? There’s a Trump golf course there as well! NPR explains.
Now there will be yet another part-time residence covered by federal funds for security. Rep. Leonard Lance, a New Jersey Republican, announced Wednesday that the small town of Bedminster — population 9,000 — has been designated a priority for the Secret Service.
The township is home to Trump National Golf Club Bedminster, one of Trump's favorite retreats. His daughter Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner were married there, and Trump summoned advisers there for post-election transition planning.
So far these places will only cost taxpayers a measly $41 million. Throw it on the pile. Remember, this guy said he won’t even take the $400k salary to be president! He’s like Jesus or Mother Theresa or Gandhi, basically. But in all seriousness, Trump’s a conman and that’s how they roll.
