Secret Service Moving
Into Trump Tower?
In preparation for the presidency of Donald Trump, the U.S. Secret Service is about to have their hands full and their mettle tested. That’s because the Trump’s are so unimpressed with The White House that they don’t intend to actually live there.

Melania Trump has already announced she will not be moving to Washington in January, saying she prefers to stay in New York City in the interest of her son, Baron Trump, who wants to remain in his school and near his friends.
Naturally, Donald Trump prefers to be near his wife and family. He is also partial to the lavish 3-story penthouse inside New York’s Trump Tower that he currently resides in, instead of the damp, dark quarters of The White House.
In a move unprecedented in modern American history, and with the Trump’s opting to spend most (if not all) of their time living in New York, the Secret Service is being forced to take up residency inside Trump Tower just to protect the future First Family.
Guess who will foot the bill for Secret Service agents renting an entire floor inside Trump Tower? Â YOU WILL!!
Guess who will reap the profits of American taxpayers paying rent for multiple Secret Service-occupied apartments and offices at Trump Tower? Â DONALD TRUMP WILL!!!
Oh, and it ain’t cheap.
According to Jared Horowitz, who is responsible for available commercial space at Trump Tower, the floors available to rent with the necessary office space the Secret Service would need in order to operate, costs upwards of $1.5 million a year. Â That money would come from the government and would go to the owner of Trump Tower… who happens to be Donald Trump. That’s not a bad supplement to the measly presidential salary he’ll make annually.

The fortress that is The White House was designed to protect the president and his family and comes with a war room for the Commander-In-Chief, his national security advisers, and military generals to operate from in the event of war, as well as an underground bunker to protect in the event of a nuclear or chemical attack.
Trump Tower has NONE of this in place, which means the Secret Service will have no choice but to do their very best in creating a makeshift 24-7 command post to protect the Trump’s.
According to a Secret Service official, a lot of details still need to be ironed out and the security plan is “evolving every day.” As of now, the official said more than 100 personnel would be needed at Trump Tower to protect the future First Family.
Additionally, the New York City Police Department would need to be a part of the security detail, mostly  to secure the streets around the building. An NYC law enforcement official said the number of NYPD cops protecting Trump Tower could grow to 300 at a cost of about $1 million a day.
For all of the hoopla the Trump’s will be creating by remaining in New York, their presence will not only be disruptive to the current residents of Trump Tower but to the already congested traffic along Manhattan’s Fifth Avenue, where Trump Tower is located.
In anticipation of a Trump presidency and the madhouse the Secret Service will bring to the luxury high-rise, a tidal wave of residents have already begun to move out. Â For the amount of money they pay for the privilege of living at the premiere Manhattan address, the increased traffic, the noise, the protests, and the daily Secret Service checks just to get in and out of their own homes aren’t worth remaining a neighbor of Donald Trump.

Trump talked about how Hillary is a crook. HE'S the crook. He is just going to use the president to make himself richer. Something is real wrong about that.
