Taxpayers already fund Camp David. It has all the security needed. If a POTUS doesn’t have his/her own place to go to for vacations, the First Family should just retreat to Camp David.
The idea that US taxpayers have to pay for these over-the-top forays of this First Family (and they are merely aping the Clintons) is ridiculous, and an insult to every Joe/Jane Lunchbucket who has to pay his/her taxes, but can’t afford a family vacation of their own.
Article I, section 9: "No Money shall be drawn from the Treasury, but in Consequence of Appropriations made by Law..."
So, who is at fault here?
