Trump's subsidized presidential campaign

In October Trump traveled to Florida on Air Force One to tout an executive order that is supposed to improve private Medicare plans.  At his appearance he ripped into “Elizabeth ‘Pocahontas’ Warren” and “Sleepy Joe Biden.”

At a shale conference in Pittsburgh Trump basically turned the meeting into a campaign rally.  He does it all the time.


The hourly rate for flying Air Force One is between $142,000 and $272,000 an hour.  We pay for this.  I am helping to pay for this.  Every time he does this kind of campaigning at public expense he is violating the Hatch Act.  And no, other Presidents did not do that.
