So, you’ve heard that the rent on Donald Trump’s campaign offices in Trump Tower went from $35 thousand to $169 thousand, even though he now has fewer employees working there.
Trump nearly quintupled the monthly rent his presidential campaign pays for its headquarters at Trump Tower to $169,758 in July, when he was raising funds from donors, compared with March, when he was self-funding his campaign, according to a Huffington Post review of Federal Election Commission filings. The rent jumped even though he was paying fewer staff in July than he did in March.
The Trump campaign says it now needs more space. That’s odd being as how he has fewer staff now.
Oh no, Melania! Have they got Melania under house arrest there?
Thanks to everybody for the heads up.
As I have continually said: Trump is only running for President in order to improve in cash flow. Bottom line is always money so we can Make aMErica Great Again. Even if he loses, which he will, he will come out ahead on the bottom line. He won’t release his tax returns because he doesn’t want us to know how deeply he is in debt and how much money he receives from Russia and how much he has donated to the Clinton Foundation. He gives a whole new meaning to the word “scam.”
1They need more space for all the Trump merchandise in their inventory. Those hats take up a lot of room.
2Presently I am reading The Making of Donald Trump by David Cay Johnston. What I’ve learned so far: (1) Trump’s granddaddy entered the US illegally and (2) Trump is an even worse person than I thought.
3Heads up IRS auditors! You might want to check Donnie’s tax returns next year as to whether or not this income has been declared. He’ll probably try to sneak it in under ‘charitable’ contributions.
Beware tenants and share holders. Check your shared liability assessments for unusual fumigation charges. Donnie has a way of passing his liabilities on to others.
Miss JJ, the most likely place to find Melania would be DeeCee, under that Post office renovation. Unless trump Towers has had a recent basement or parking garage remodel.
4Wonder what he’s charging the campaign for his private plane?
5The scampaign continues.
6If P.T. Barnum….(“there’s a sucker born every minute”) had ever run for president…….
He would have run a campaign just like D.T.
7Oldayfly #3, I’m reading the same book. I agree, Trump is far worse than I knew before reading this book. He is a person without any conscience and totally focused on only himself and $$$. I have yet to read any redeeming quality or action of his.
8Voting for Trump is a huge mythtake. And I’m not lisping.
9PKM, the old Post Office is a wonderful old DC building, and it’s a shame that it’s going to have Trump smeared all over it for the foreseeable future. Well, until he drives it into bankruptcy along with all of his other projects.
10Rhea, whatever happened to zoning laws that prohibited offending sights like Trump in gold glitz tall letters? Seriously. Boston has some serious requirements for historical buildings that would exclude Drumpf ‘enterprises.’
Maybe we should start a go-fund-me page for DeeCee, hire a private detective with concrete skills to examine the foundation for bodies.
11Donnie’s got all the angles covered. I read somewhere that he’s already pointed at some other shady crap he’s pulled and said the system is rigged, and he’s just taking advantage of it like any other good business man would do. Therefore, he knows just how to fix it. Keep sending your money folks, Donnie’s got it all under control.
12Actually it isn’t so much he charged the RNC financed campaign more, he charged his self funded campaign less. It should be reported as a “gift in kind” to the campaign but it was not.
13PKM, the post office building is federal property; Trump’s leasing it. DC objected to the big Trump signs but got nowhere, as DC usually gets when the feds are involved.

14I just finished reading A$$holes: A Theory Of Donald Trump by Aaron James. It was a pretty good read if I say so myself. Pointed out exactly what makes him an a$$hole. (By the way, the book uses the real word, not dollar signs)
15Scampain in deed. Drumpf is a con from start to finish.
16Just fallow the $$$.
As far as Trump’s hotel in DC, it has a door like every other building. Nobody has to enter… if you get my drift.
17Trump understands the hard work a President has to do and should be paid for his effort so the first bill he will sign would raise the pay of US President to $50 million a year salary. Just like a CEO, you know, screw the little guy and reap all the profits.
18>The scampaign continues.
LynnN….thanks for this!
19I like both “scampaign” and “scampain”. Thanks!
20I’ll just say anything Scumpf does is guaranteed to be a scum scam.
I continue to wonder why the Trumpster is not being asked by the media and the public as to what his plans are for running his numerous business interests and avoid a conflict of interest when making decisions that would greatly benefit his pocketbook. Am sick of hearing the Trump mantra of “but he is not a politician and he is a businessman”–That is supposed to qualify him–really? He is already showing the sales tactics of Bait and Switch (bait everyone with the deportation squads and taking 11 million people out of the country with a magic wand) and switch to (now to be determined per Kellyanne Conway his new mouthpiece) to soften his persona–really, we hope these questions will start to surface–We deserve better than this
