    What does a one BR, one bath in Trump Tower cost? $5k a month? The Secret Service is going to have to rent a whole floor to get enough space for all they have going on to protect the President and his family.

    Fair market value, according to YF's Big Book of Budget Analysis.

    Actually, there were 699,202 abortions in 2012. A figure not much higher than the 586,760 in the year BEFORE Roe v. Wade. And the number has been reduced by more than half since 1990. As teen pregnancies continue to decline, the number gets better and better.

    Well, let's see... there will be whatever is done with regard to the air space and planes overhead. Any subway that's anywhere close is going to have to be hardened and surveilled. Same for the street frontage, because as things stand a truck bomb can be driven close enough to the building to make it vulnerable to an Oklahoma City style attack. The Secret Service is going to need space inside the Trump Tower for what, a hundred agents of the protective detail, plus the surveillance of the area, plus communications, plus offices and desks for the detail. That's probably going to mean taking over a full floor plus various checkpoints and guard stations inside. How much does even a small apartment in that building go for per month?

    I understand that he and his family want to have somewhere to go outside the White House, but his place in Palm Beach or at the golf course would be easier and cheaper to secure. GWB went to his ranch in South Texas, and it was one helluva lot less expensive to secure. The choice that Trump makes has a whole lot to do with what it costs, that's why it matters where he lives.

    There's a reason the Secret Service loved it that Obama loved the Vineyard. Securing a resort island is easy.

    If a coal miner shows up and blows him away at the confirmation hearing, I'm contributing to the defense fund.

    Eventually enough of this stuff will pile up and the Trump voters will start to figure out how badly they got conned.

    I'm sure Soros will be happy to pay for plenty of abortions.
