I am not sure why we are spending this much time debating this. Who am I to advise POTUS where he is to host his meetings? And he has held meetings there numerous times, just maybe not the “high-viz” G7. Even on things I have initial cautions about, so far Trumps judgement has served him well.
Regarding the Air Force overnight, it would have cost a few hundred thousand to fly to a different place from where they were on that mission. But again, we are going down in the weeds.
Exactly, if Trump wants to use his office to further line his pockets who are we useless proles to object to that. He’s the king, after all.
