No wonder. It makes it sound like the refrigerators alone are going to cost $24 million.

Whatever Party didn’t hold the White House would whine about it.

Why are they yelling about it? It’s not Trump’s plane, when he leaves office it stays with the next President. He’d probably rather be using his own personal jumbo jet.

That approaches the booze bill that Pelosi rang up on her flights as House Speaker.

How much did Bo the Dog’s refrigerators cost? I don’t think I ever heard about that.

$23+ for refrigerating units? Crazy!
Trump should scrap that and buy some of those big coolers they have for boats and use good old fashion ice.

“What exactly is a “cold chiller unit”?”

Usually an air conditioner and no a fridge.

= = =

Maybe a cold storage unit for bodies, like in a morgue.

To keep a dead president (or others) in, to get them home.

Or to hold these bodies and pretend they are alive.

You can see I have watched too much TV, “24”, etc.

PS Could have used one for Ron Brown.
