What next in the way of privatizing the White House, one armed bandits?

Quite possibly a new First Couple. It is all grandstanding. If the American people can't afford to keep the White House Tours operating then it should not be privatized even if it is a donation. Trump could have donated to benefit the Treasury without carry on about tours.


..."This is about trade-offs," (click here) said White House spokesman Jay Carney. "Because when you have the kind of severe cuts that the sequester represents, you have to reduce your budget accordingly, and then you have to make choices about what you do and what you don't."
The tours affect the budget of the Secret Service, which sent out this statement:...
President Obama had nothing to do with the choices in where to cut the budget of the Secret Service.

The electorate of the USA needs to differentiate themselves from rhetoric and what is important to them. Privatizing government is not in the best interest of the country. Have Americans no pride when it comes to their priorities and what they will seek as give aways from Wall Street?

Two years have passed since Seth Meyers (click here) ridiculed Donald Trump at the White House Correspondents Dinner. But Trump still wants to kill Meyers.
Last month, Howard Stern asked Trump to play a game: What would Trump's choices be if he had to marry, sex or kill three guys - Meyers, Bill Maher and President Barack Obama?
Trump said he would marry Obama, have sex with Maher and kill Meyers.
"I'm very honored he would still kill me," Meyers says, laughing. (He performs stand-up Saturday at The Mirage for $52.94-$74.94 per ticket.)
Meyers became a Trump nemesis after the comedian made jokes such as this one at the 2011 political roast:
"Donald Trump often appears on Fox, which is ironic because a fox often appears on Donald Trump's head."
Just this past December, Trump grumped on Twitter that the "Saturday Night Live" star "bombed" during a "dismal" comedy gig in Texas....

There will be no end to how laughable the White House Tours become if privatization begins to take over the White House.  We don't need an Apprentice challenge to whom can provide the best White House Tour.

The country does not need it, but, Mr. Trump is welcome to contribute all he wants to the USA Treasury.
