Remember how all the “left over” inaugural money – more than twice what President Obama spent in 2009 – was going to charity?

Well, not so much.

Of the money, almost half of it was split between two firms, one of which was a firm started by an advisor to Melania Trump, that received $26 million.

One of the companies, WIS Media Partners of Marina del Rey, California, was created by a longtime friend of Mrs. Trump, Stephanie Winston Wolkoff, according to a person familiar with the firm. Records show that the firm was created in December 2016, but otherwise there is very little information available about it.

Hey, little buddy, $26 million ain’t bad for less than two months.

Other fun stuff – the concert on the National Mall featuring performances by the country music star Toby Keith and the rock band Three Doors Down cost $25 million.

Security costs “are upward towards $100 million” but luckily for Trump, taxpayers will pay for that.  Maybe next time we can be the charity.
