The taxpayer doesn't pay for his meals, actually. Came as a surprise to the Obamas they said once.

Didn't look to hard for the Obama quote, but Nancy Reagan's reaction is in that one.

Lol Trump doesn't pay his bills. He still owes several cities from campaign rallies he held in like 2015. He's infamous for not paying his bills, and was so for decades before he became president.

There is no chance that Trump paid for this.

I guarantee Trump finagled the taxpayer into paying to stuff his greasy pedo face and all of his chomo friends

I heard about the President being billed for services in an interview with Laura Bush.

White House chefs who prepare the president’s meals are paid by the government.

I am confused by this. He pays his meals, but the chefs are paid by the government? So he only pays for the ingredients?
