US Govt has paid $2.5M to Trump properties since Trump became Pres. (Only $2.5M?!?)

$2.5M as of Oct 27, 2020:

https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/ballrooms-candles-and-luxury-cottages-during-trumps-term-millions-of-government-and-gop-dollars-have-flowed-to-his-propertiesmar-a-lago-charged-the-government-3-apiece-for-glasses-of-water-for-trump-and-the-japanese-leader/2020/10/27/186f20a2-1469-11eb-bc10-40b25382f1be_story.html

Would have figured more since he visited his hotels and country clubs at least 280 times in his 4yrs as Pres.
And the final figure is probably a little higher since he was in office for 3 more months from when the story was written.

noone is surprised it's only $2.5M?

i would had figured he'd be diverting/robbing the US Govt of $100M+ over 4 yrs to his various organizations

I figure that might cover SS room fees. Seems way, way low.

That's sounding much more like reality.
I mean shit, look at this guy.
Obama's Hawaii Christmas vacations cost taxpayers $35 million over 8 years - Washington Times

And he wasn't even getting a percentage.

No cut, that's not too smart for a two-termer.
