According to USA Today, the presidents government-funded security force had to pay $7,100 for luxury portable restrooms at President Donald Trumps resort in Bedminster, New Jersey. The high rental fees came during the presidents vacation at Bedminster from August 3 to August 21.
Leave it to Donald Trump to find a way to spend thousands of taxpayer dollars on a port-a-potty, Brad Bainum, spokesperson for the liberal American Bridge PAC, told USA Today. This man is literally flushing our money down the toilet.
This expenditure was in addition to the $13,500 spent on golf cart rentals during the presidents Bedminster stay, the report continues.

(25,642 posts)Much nicer than my bathroom: picture the rest room at a Hilton or Marriott: gentle lighting, spotless, no foul odor, fragranced in fact. I've also been to portable toilets housed on magnificent trailers with all accoutrements. There is no limit to the luxury when you take a dump if you're rich enough.

(15,543 posts)instead republicans have to squander our hard-earned tax dollars on deluxe, golden, gourmet piss houses. Stop it. Save money.
Do what republican family-values role model Comrade Casino himself prefers, and piss on the beds.
