The Playboy Wet And Wild 2 (1990)White House Military Office is reportedly shelling out $130,000 a month to rent some space at Trump Tower in New York City, which should raise a few eyebrows since that property belongs to a company the president used to control and has not divested from.
Though The Wall Street Journalreports that the military is renting the space from a private owner likely to be the president's NYC neighbor, the fee is more than double what such a space should rent for.
SEE ALSO: Trump’s Tech Week did not make America greatWhite House Military Office does legally need to be close to the president, since they are the arbiters of information such as the nuclear codes, but the president no longer spends much time at his NYC headquarters, so $130,000 seems a bit steep. Right now, the military has a lease for the spot through September of 2018, to the tune of $2.39 million.
The office first started renting in Trump Tower in the middle of April, during which they paid $180,000. Added on to the $130,000 they'd pay to rent space in Trump Tower each month through 2020, the price tag would come to just under $6 million.
For the military, that amount of cash is kind of like me finding a nickel in my pocket. Their 2017 budget alone is $586.7 billion. But for the vast majority of us, $6 million isn't a small number.
$6 million could, for example, pay a year's base salary to 34 members of Congress.
It could, for example, pay for two or three Trump visits to his estate in Florida.
It could, for example, buy six Russian tanks, if the president is inclined to add a tank purchase order to the list of his connections to Russia.
Or it could rent a space in which a few folks in the military sit around. Whatever works!
