The Trump campaign is being asked to pay for security. The president isn't taking it well
The Trump campaign is indignant that it is being expected to help cover the cost of extra security for a rally planned in Minneapolis Thursday. According to the campaign, Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey is “attempting to extort President Trump’s re-election campaign by conjuring up a phony and outlandish bill for security.”
The report only included cities that went through the trouble of invoicing the campaign for police costs. Many, the report notes, didn’t even bother asking. With the Trump campaign poised to descend on his city Thursday — and with Minneapolis Police Department cancelling days off and calling for back-up from around the state — Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey came up with a plan to make sure the campaign paid for any costs associated with the event in advance.
Parscale included an email from the Trump campaign’s lawyers threatening to sue AEG, owner of the Target Center.
