Look at the civilian costs....
Expedia has flights between DC and West Palm Beach for $326 round trip. Even if they take 100 people, on commercial flights that would be $32,600.
They need a place to say, so let's say $200 rooms and two per room. That's $10,000 per day (probably a lot less actually).
So where do these million dollar trip costs come from?

Dude, just the first 3 weekends cost the city of west palm beach $26k in overtime for the police. The Sheriff's dept is paying $60k a day everyday he's there because they can't take cops off their normal shifts they have to pay overtime and bring cops in from other areas and pay travel expenses.
That's money out of the "local" tax payers pockets who live in the city of west palm beach. That's something like $400k now, they had to spend on Trump's bull shit that they don't get back from the federal govt and that money now isn't used to benefit the tax payers of that city.
Every time Trump shows up they close a small local airport and every business at that air port is forced to close. (they get no advanced warning just secret service show up and close them down)
It's not just local cops either, because the resort is on the beach they have to bring in the coast guard to patrol the ocean. They aren't patrolling it in dingys... There are fighter jets on standby usually in the air and all the crews that go with them...
There is a shit load of things that go on you appear to be unaware of because you choose not to educate your self but rather just claim it's not true..
This is a pretty good break down of his first "three" visits we are now on visit number 7...
