I'm sure he won't even be reimbursing the comparatively-measly equivalent cost of commercial flight because some "credible threat to national security" at the hockey venue, or his no-doubt 5-star hotel, or the Michelin-starred restaurants where he'll be eating, will be claimed.

I do hope he was roundly booed when he showed up (sporting an "FBI" jacket and indoor sunglasses, probably. )
