Taxpayers will pay all costs for Eric Trump trip to Ireland to discuss daddy's new ballroom at the family's golf resort
According to a report from the Independent, middle son, Eric Trump is slated for a “jaunt” to Ireland next week to lobby for approval of a “spectacular” new ballroom at the family’s golf resort — and taxpayers will be on the hook for paying a substantial amount of the bill as he conducts family business.
The report notes that Secret Service costs for agents’ lodging will cost, at a minimum, $21,449.01, and that is just the start, the report notes."
The Independent’s Justin Rohrlich is reporting, “Eric once claimed that the family business let the Secret Service stay at their hotels for free or at cost. However, an investigation by Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, a D.C. watchdog nonprofit, found Trump properties usually charged the Secret Service “above typical rates, including for Eric Trump’s own travel.”
Taxpayers will also be footing the costs of “salaries, air travel, meals and local transportation,” while Donald Trump’s son conducts family business.
