“The White House is a very complex place. It’s an office, it’s a museum and it’s a home,” McBride said. “We loan it to the president for the time he or she is living there. Coming from that perspective, we need to be understanding of some decisions that they make in a case like this.”
Robert Trump, a businessman, died Saturday after being hospitalized in New York. The president had visited his brother in the hospital on Friday. “When he worked in the Trump Organization, he was known as the nice Trump,” Gwenda Blair, a Trump family biographer, told The Associated Press. “Robert was the one people would try to get to intervene if there was a problem.”
A Boston University graduate, Robert Trump later managed the Brooklyn portion of his father Fred Trump’s real estate empire, which was eventually sold.his nomination acceptance speech
May his soul Rest In Peace
Who is paying for this Trump is this legal,are you that broke,don’t you have any shame, will burgers 🍔 be served, RIP for your brother, the USA can’t RIP as long as you are president
To bad the wrong brother died
He’s disgusting
Sadly, I don’t care, he doesn’t care about our deaths, why should we care about his?!
Why. Let him pay for a funeral home like everyone else. Not In My House!!
Nobody condoles with you
Robert died of Covid 19.
Reading the responses from liberals to this post demonstrates exactly what it means to be a low life. Disgusting.
Why not have a funeral for your administration...think of how much you save with a Two'fer.
I would suggest an insight committee to make sure all expenses, are accounted for with no burden on the tax payer! Liked maybe $200,000 deposit with a refund issued of expenses are less! Trump has a way of not paying his bills! Just say'n! May he rest in peace!
So we can expect him to eulogize himself then...? Campaign Rally/Narcissistic Psychopathic Moment/Funeral.
So sorry for your loss President Trump and Family.
Why the WH? WH is not owned by trump, so how can he hold a private family funeral there and charge it on to the taxpayer tab? His brother never held federal office!
Amazing...our WH is now a funeral home. Disgusting....
JoshNBCNews How much will he inherit
Why at the whitehouse?
Trump can invite all his friends and donors to a State dinner at taxpayers expense.
Was the Taj Mahal already booked? I swear if this egomaniac is re elected he's going to divert the southern border money to start on his Pyramid!
He’s turned the White House into his own personal play pen. I wonder how many porn stars/hookers have been through in the last 3 years, not counting the ones that live there.
On tax payers dollars!?
Glad that you are doing this.
Well, apparently Robert was Donald’s ‘biggest fan’. U gotta look after your fans, right?
At the White House?
That’s a bunch of shit.... I guess it’s cheaper for him to do it on our dime
Will it be held in Tяump's bunker?
Guessing there are no churches willing to host the Trump funeral, can't say I blame them
Who’s footing the bill? Well that’s a stupid question!!! EVERYONE in their right mind knows the American People are picking up the tap for this and ALL of BunkerBoy’s expenses.
Why? WH was not his home. It is his brother’s workplace. Well, supposedly, because he only tweets and plays golf.
Problem is that his being enabled to do things like this. His the president and that to him means in his own words that 'he can do what he wants'. This is just sad, so so sad...
This is wrong on every level.
No one cares
Why doesn't Trump have the funeral at his VA golf course? He's always there.
How is this allowed? I’m speechless everyday with the things this man does & how everybody is just watching the circus go by. The GOP are deep in with this clown.
So wrong. He had nothing to do with the government. Just another ploy by tRump to get attention.
Probably has Barron out on the South Lawn digging a hole.
Is this what his brother’s family wants? Were they even asked?
Are the taxpayers paying for this too
Why am I paying for a “billionaires” brothers funeral?
Younger days
Can’t do it at Mar a Lago?
I thought his brother lived in New York. Have the funeral there.
WrongTrump
You paid 45 millions to a Wall that was supposed to be paid by Mexico, paying a funeral is just a piece of cake.
Official U.S. business
A true American hero! That is the correct way to celebrate!
Could we have... A... TWOFOR...
I question the legality of holding the service at WhiteHouse but when has realDonaldTrump ever been concerned about the law? Truly I don’t care if the service is held there. What I find more concerning is I have no doubt POTUS will make the service about himself.
I loved that Biden sent condolences asap without issue. It’s what leaders should do.
So WE THE PEOPLE are flipping the bill? Anything that happens at the White house we pay for
God Bless - it is really hard when families cannot hold funerals for their loved ones but looting and protest is acceptable.
Would it be wrong of me to wish for a 2 for 1? 😏😏😏
Will he attend, or just go golfing again?
He should hold it at one of his golf clubs, that's where he was when his brother died. Taxpayers should not pay for that
I didn't know he was a goverment official
But how did he die?
Will he tweet through it?
America is picking up the tab and a photo op the crime family 😡😡
Despots and Dictators Gathered together in the bunker!
Yamiche Acosta We need answers. Taxpayers better not be paying for this. Not to mention the clear violation of the Hatch Act!!
At the people’s house?
And I’m sure Trump has a tee time at the same time
Was Robert living in white house before
And he’ll make it all about himself. As usual.
What a load of crap.
Still want yo know what he died of
JoshNBCNews Who makes someone’s funeral come to them
DNC speaker: Donna Hylton: convicted of murder and two counts of kidnapping in the first degree for her role in the kidnapping, rape, torture and murder of New York businessman Thomas Vigliarolo in 1985.
And millions are saying. “Wrong Trump”
Very touching! Potus lived his best friend/brother!
So realDonaldTrump is exploiting his brother’s death by having a campaign rally at the People’s House? Sound about right. TrumpCrimeFamilyForPrison VoteBidenHarris2020
Is this the actual funeral for Robert Trump or a celebration of life? Are the Taxpayers footing the bill for the auxiliary staff, utilities, food, etc?
This makes me hate this man even more. Go hold that funeral elsewhere just not in them White House.
If he was his best friend, then why wasn't he there for him at the end?
Excuse me the whitehouse belongs to all of us it is not your private residence. I’m sure a funeral home is close by
More to grift on, This is such abuse. His Hotel is down the block!!!!!!!!
Since when do I have to pay for the funeral of a trump, especially in MY HOUSE?
What A Frecking Mess Feel his just Disrespected all those that died and we're Buryed in A mess Grave . Disgusting Shame hateful Boy his brother never serverd our Country Either of his family members. Beyond upset.
So his brother's funeral will turn into another taxpayer-funded campaign rally. ffs.
Will they do lines off the casket lid?
If any Democratic POTUS did this, the Republicans would be calling for their impeachment.
A church is the appropriate setting to have a funeral: Trump needs to find a church: go regularly to church: Sorry Evangelicals this Clown never set foot in a church:
A funeral at the White House? Is that even allowed?
Of course it’s on the tax payers dime!
If you cover it. If one network covers it. If one democrat attends. F-k you al
I’m shocked it’s not being held at a golf course.
I still say it's the wrong brother. How sad for America.
Is he reimbursing the taxpayers we’re having it at the White House because it’s not his house it’s our house
Its it going to be catered by Goya Beans!
Does he think this is his personal home or funeral parlor now? I don't want to pay for anything that has to do with him or his family. The WH doesn't even host funerals for past presidents or anyone in Congress. Go to your damn hotel across the street & stop grifting us.
Please don’t tell me Melania’s not burying him in the rose garden
Completely improper. What qualifies him?
That's the People's house. Use Trump Tower. Will we also get to witness the reading of the will?
Do NOT carry it Live
is that legal?
Condolences to the President and his family.
Not even for a funeral will this guy go to a church..yet he will for a photo op...... evangelical hypocrisy....
DON'T BURRY WH !
Is that leagal?
The guy realDonaldTrump will do anything to get ATTENTION.
And then afterwards he’ll go golfing.
Why? He didn’t live and/or work there. It’s the people’s house but not a funeral home.
THIS IS SICKENING!!!!!! SOMEONE IS LOOKING FOR SYMPATHY LIKE WHAT JOE BIDEN GETS!!!!!! FUCKTRUMP FUCKTRUMP FUCKTRUMP FUCKTRUMP FUCKTRUMP FUCKTRUMP FUCKTRUMP FUCKTRUMP FUCKTRUMP FUCKTRUMP FUCKTRUMP
Why because Democratics did? Due to all respect (something trump knows of) why do tax payer have to pay for his 'brothers' funeral at the WH?
Bless his memory. Our People's White House has had its share of sad occasions in its long history.
How is this legal? Is there going to be a memorial at the WH for the 170,000 + who have died under his watch.
Maybe he should just sprinkle his ashes over the golf course. That way he could remember his brother every day.
he has a best friend how is that possible?
Are you effing kidding me? Great, so we’re paying for his brother’s lavish funeral too? Omg if ANY of this is televised I’m going to lose it! 🤬🤯
A private funeral?
