Half as much as when a president stumps for another candidate

So how do you feel about it when The Half-Breed comes to town? Or you have a sporting event?

I am certain we will never hear about the cost to protect Hillary at the same venues.

Why is this news? How is this different from any other campaign?

Has the Austin media ever complained about costs when Obama has visited?
Doubt it.

Guess they haven’t been to 6th Street on a Fri or Sat night?

Nitpicking weirdos. No stories about Hillary using a jet aircraft to travel only 20 miles when a perfectly good ferry was available.

Not a peep as to how much $$$$$ the city of Austin cheerfully spent on security when Obama has come to town (multiple times).

Wonder why campaigns don’t remimburse. I understand that the caucus events in Iowa are supposed to be .

To paraphrase the propaganda:
HOW DARE TRUMP CAMPAIGN?! That PROVES he hates the American taxpayer, who has to foot the bill for protecting him!
Wow. The press NEVER runs out of ways to be assholes, do they?

I don’t think the city has to pay this. Certain Federal elections costs are passed on up right?

Liberals are sooooo hypocritical, they only raise this kind of issue against Republican candidates. Ofc for Obozo or Shrillary there could not even be a discussion about security costs or travel costs, just pay the bills!

Gee, the Afghani story writer finally mentions at the end of the story....
“KXAN has learned that Trump is taking care of the bill over at the Travis County Expo Center.”
“Arezow grew up in Kabul, Afghanistan. Some of her earliest childhood memories include watching Soviet tanks and troops on city streets. Her family escaped Afghanistan during the Russian invasion by fleeing to the Afghan-Pakistan border. There they lived in refugee camps and later moved to Germany before eventually finding a permanent home in Texas. A family friend taught Arezow and her siblings English after they arrived.”

Leftists have found a new way to whine. How much does it cost if Hillary broomsticks in?
