http://www.rawstory.com/2017/02/melania-trump-may-permanently-stay-in-trump-tower-and-not-move-to-white-house-report/
One of Us Weeklys sources claims that the White House will reevaluate toward the end of the school year if they will keep this arrangement or if Melania and Barron will move to Washington, although the source cautions that things could go either way right now.
According to the source, the Trump family seems to like the current arrangement, as the the fiercely independent Donald seems to like having his space.
As Us Weekly notes, Trump told ABC Newss David Muir that he didnt feel lonely without Melania and Barron around because it enabled him to work longer.
The cost to U.S. taxpayers of keeping Melania and Barron safe during their stay in Trump Tower will likely make the Trumps the most expensive First Family to protect in American history, as some officials in New York City have claimed that it will cost taxpayers $1 million a day to have them stay in Manhattan.

I think he just likes to humiliate women. Again, sociopath.

(31,261 posts)Into their eighties. Trump likely see all the fresh faced young conservative women coming into the White House and has likely marked some for future sexual advances. Why would he want Melania and Barron around when he wants to go on sexual escapades. Trump has no sense of shame, his past with women won't stop him from assaulting willing and unwilling female AIDS in the White House, and his actions will be covered up while the women are silenced.

(18,837 posts)...let's also not forget that we well be paying for the "Winter White House" at Mar-a-Lago too, and my guess is that since he owns that property, a lot of the money will end up in his pocket. That and the fact that "Winter White House" will probably include Summer, Spring and Fall too. The White House is convenient for Executive Order Signing Photo Ops, but not much else, and there's just not enough GOLD, even though he swapped out the curtains.

(1 post)The fact that the taxpayers are paying for Melania to live in Trump tower is criminal. If she chooses to stay in Manhattan, Trump needs to foot the bill. This is just abuse and frivolous. This is one of things he campaigned against, what a hypocrite!! That kid, Barron, is on no more danger now than he was before. It is ridiculous!!

(31,261 posts)It Barron goes, plus NYC cops and EMT constantly near them, FBI, Intelligence Agencies constantly on the ground evaluating threats to the Mom and child.
The right made a big issue of Obama taking vacations which he paid for, but says nothing about $1 million per day being spent to protect Melania and Barron.

(9,350 posts)This is not at all surprising. The moment she announced that she would not move to Washington, D.C. until the end of the semester I thought there was a chance that she would spend the entire four years in New York. I do not believe the notion that she had to stay in New York because they did not want to take Barron out of his private school during the school year. Kellyanne Conway seems to be moving her children mid year. Ivanka Trump-Kushner has at least one child that is school age. It seems that child is being moved mid year.
So, why is she considering staying in New York? Is this because they are not a happy couple and do not like being around each other? Is this because they want the money that comes from the rent that is being paid by the Secret Service? Is this because they think having the Secret Service in the building will increase the value of the building for the four years that they are in the White House?
