For whatever reason, munchkin wants to put the ss back under treasury, but doesn't want to provide congress with cost info.

The GOP, the Party of respect for the law, and financial responsibility, refuses to show the taxpayers how much Trump is profiting from his Presidency.

But even the 118 million represents an enormous theft of taxpayer dollars.
