When Trump goes to campaign for 2020 or to help campaign for some politician who pays the bill? The GOP, or taxpayers?

Asked by Pandora (32206points) February 9th, 2018

Okay, so when candidates run for office, supposedly either the GOP or the RNC pay for all of it. Money which they get from donors.

So it got me wondering does the tax payer pay for Trump when he goes around campaigning? I mean it, means using Air Force One to fly around and then paying for rooms and security. No doubt it cost a lot more. And I get maybe doing that throughout the campaign year but between the cost of his weekend trips every weekend and when ever he feels compelled to do a feel good rally for himself.

I think it only fair the GOP reimburse tax money for him campaigning. After all. He was hired as president. Not a professional yearly campaigner and chief. If he wants to simply get a message out, he can easily step up to the press room and say his peace and let them know he’s not taking questions. Easy and a lot cheaper than flying all around costing tax payers 100’s of thousands of dollars.

Hell he can even go to Camp David every weekend. It would cost the taxpayers a lot less and he won’t be lining his own pockets every time he goes away for the weekend with tax payer cash.
