Now why aren't we hearing more about that? And that 63 million doesn't include the "extra" costs of protecting wife and son who are living in their own escapement in N.Y. - that cost is around an additional 75 million.

"

[T]hat number (17 million spent on the on-going investigation) is dwarfed by the amount required to pay for the president's numerous trips to the "Winter White House," which Washington Post and Politico analyses have estimated to cost taxpayers on average between $1 million and $3 million per trip.

As of Dec. 26, Trump had spent 39 days at Mar-a-Lago in 2017. Trump took his 17th trip to the property in April, according to Town and Country magazine.

AP estimates that we have paid $63 million for Trump's jaunts to Mar-A-Lago since he's taken office. And that doesn't include the estimated $75 million it cost for Melania and Barron to stay in New York.

1. It could 7 BILLION spent for golf trips and not ONE deplorable fuck would care.

I do wish more NON deplorables would find out about this stuff though

2. Okay, how was that $17M calculated?

I can see travel and lab work and such, but if the $17M includes the salaries of people who were there anyway (FBI/etc.) and would have been paid for working on something else, then their salaries need to come out of the total.
