On the scheme of things I'm getting upset about, Trump kids getting six months of the watered-down, scaled back Secret Service protection provided to the children of former presidents is way down on the list.

I just can't get myself worked up over everything he does. I can't give him that kind of energy - especially over things I have absolutely no control over. He doesn't deserve that much of my attention.

If a certain number of agents were not guarding Trump family members they would be doing something else and getting the same pay. So it really doesn't cost the taxpayers anything.
