Trump should not be entitled to Secret Service protection when he's gone!

[Cinnabar]

If you thought the $400,000 salary presidents get every year they’re in office was great, you’ll be blown away by how much former presidents are still entitled to. Every year for the rest of their lives, former commanders in chief get pensions that match the salary of a Cabinet Secretary—about $211,000 in 2018.

Not only do ex-presidents get pension checks, but they also get to expense the money they use to pay for office staff. When they first leave office, they get up to $150,000 for staffing every year, but after the first 30 months, that number drops to $96,000 per year.

Former presidents will be public figures for the rest of their lives, and they’re entitled to a lifetime of Secret Service protection. Their spouses get the same benefits (unless an ex-spouse remarries), and their kids can get free security until they turn 16.

So a tax and draft dodging impeached grifter who lied to the American people and caused over 200,000 deaths will get perks on the taxpayer's dime. Disgusting!

At least he will never have the benefit of SOCIALIZED medical treatment again.

Just like any other federal employee, presidents can keep their health benefits through retirement as long as they’ve been with the government for five years or more—in most presidents’ cases, that means serving two terms.

All past President's get it, understandable, the only difference with Trump is that he will find a way to personally profit off of it, guarantee his assigned Secret Service detail will be booked at all of his resorts at season ceiling rates

to be fair, "tax and draft dodging impeached grifter who lied to the American people" applies equally to Clinton........

Every former POTUS should have secret service protection for life. It's not to protect his life, but to protect state secrets. If someone were to capture a retired POTUS--especially one as wimpy as Trump--they would undoubtedly draw out all kinds of secrets with torture and other forms of intimidation.

Disagreed on Secret Service protection, at least while in office, but thanks for the insight about 5 years.

My guess is that Trump will get rid of his detail because he's paranoid and doesn't want anyone listening in on his dealings. Trump will lose executive privilege the moment his successor takes the oath.

The article states after 5 years. No 2nd term...no insurance.
