Is anyone else (both Republican and Democrat or something else) irritated that millions of American tax dollars are going to fund Melania Trump?

I and many other Americans are outraged that Melania Trump's decision not to move to the White house with her husband is costing American taxpayers millions if dollars. There is a petition on Change.org urging for the Trumps to pay for the expenses themselves since they have more than enough money. If anyone is interested the link is

https://www.change.org/p/u-s-house-of-representatives-make-melania-trump-stay-in-the-white-house-or-pay-for-the-expenses-herself?source_location=petition_nav

or you can go to Change.org directly and search for: Make Melania Trump stay in the White House or pay for the expenses herself


I don't know any other way to get the word out to everyone, but this is preposterous. As I said, This effects EVERY American taxpayer, no matter what you party is. So check it out and sign so hopefully there can be a change, Check out the comments while you're there. People are angry and upset. Funds can got to thousands of other sources than this irresponsible gesture. And don't forget to please pass the word!!

Maybe if they didn't recieved so many desth threats from "tolerent" liberals, there wouldn't be a need for so much security. I don't remember anybody caring about the former Presidents vacations.

It's all about the media this time around and as his approval rating drops the media coverage will increase.

@Solipsism: That's the President for you.

A position with the greatest power and respect, therefore subject to the greatest scrutiny and accountability.

@WINNER: My comment wasn't disputing whether it's legal or not. It was simply to point out that any decision a President makes is subject to the greatest scrutiny, case and point Trump's tweets about thwe cost of Obama's holidays.

@Solipsism: we're not seeing any "accountability" at ALL

@Fernie: Several staff members have already stepped down and I'm hopeful that the legal system, despite all it's shortcomings, will come through.

@Solipsism: Which legal system are you referring to? The corrupt one we have here in the USA????
