Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner spent $100,000 of taxpayer money renting a bathroom so Secret Service agents didn't have to use theirs

Ivanka Trump, President Donald Trump's eldest daughter, and her husband, Jared Kushner, a top aide to the president, have spent more than $100,000 on accommodations for their Secret Service detail after prohibiting the agents from using the bathrooms in their mansion, The Washington Post reported on Thursday .
Law-enforcement officials told The Post that the president's daughter and his son-in-law barred the Secret Service agents from using their 6.5 bathrooms when they first moved into their home in the wealthy Kalorama neighborhood of Washington, DC, in 2017. Instead, they offered the agents a port-a-potty on the sidewalk.
But after multiple neighbors complained about the port-a-potty, the agents were forced to use bathrooms in former President Barack Obama's garage nearby, at the vice president's compound a mile up Massachusetts Avenue, and at businesses in the area.
Finally, in September 2017, the federal government began renting a $3,000-a-month studio apartment across the street from the Trump/Kushner residence for the agents' bathroom needs. The government has so far spent more than $100,000 on rent for the basement apartment and is expected to spend a total of $144,000, as the lease goes the end of September.
In a statement to The Post, a White House spokesman, Judd Deere, denied that Trump and Kushner had prohibited their Secret Service detail from using the bathrooms in their house.

In their defense, they did only have seven bathrooms at hand. What else could they do??

My apologies, did not see.
Who gives a fuck? Outside of the TDS sufferers that is.
The Trumps are elitist snobs. Just like every other damn politician. They just happen to be the kings and queens of elitist snob politicians.
Tax payer money is wasted on a lot worse things than insuring Federal Agents having to associate as little as possible with the Trumps.
Lol. Yesterday conservatives flocked to an article about how CNN erred in misunderstanding that Ted Lieu grabbed an energy bar, not a crowbar, while the Capitol Building was under siege. You guys are a hoot!
So you're perfectly OK having strangers coming into your home to use the shitter?
They're perfectly okay with them being posted at their house for protection. Letting them use the bathroom should be the least they could do.
However, knowing the Trumps:
Those so-called strangers are there protecting their lives of the dimwit couple and their kids. They will take a bullet for the POS so fuck yes with 6.5 bathrooms in the house I'm sure there is a half bath that they could use.
Yes. Especially ones that get paid to take a fucking bullet for me.
And you can bet that they hire someone to clean those 7 commodes...
Apparently they are perfectly fine trusting their lives and personal safety to these same strangers. [removed]
