A little detail you might have missed, regarding how much Don & Melanie are costing taxpayers

Trump flies into a rage when Air Force One television was turned on CNN instead of Fox News

According to the New York Times, President Donald Trump erupted into a rage when he saw that an Air Force One television was tuned to CNN instead of Fox News.

The angry outburst was just part of last week’s trip to Europe for the G-7 meeting and the Helsinki summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin. Trump reportedly yelled at the staff for “violating the rule.”

According to an email obtained by The Times between White House Military Office and the White House Communications Agency, the president also needed two additional televisions to support Beam, a kind of streaming device. The first lady and Trump needed their boxes and televisions for their separate hotel rooms while they travel.

The end of the email has officials confirming that all televisions would be tuned to Fox in the future.

is that any worse than all the golfing week-ends or the penthouse in NYC? It's all so mind/psyche numbing.
