TRUMP Doonbeg Charged Irish Police €875 for Coffee During inclement Weather




Trump's Irish golf resort charged An Garda Siochana about €100k during President Trump's visit in June when they were protecting him

Trump's Irish golf resort in Doonbeg, Co Clare charged Irish police over €100k as they worked overtime during President Trump's visit to the property in June.


The Irish Times reports that 3,820 gardaÃ* were on overtime during Trump’s visit – around 27 percent of the overall 14,251 strength of the Garda – at a cost of €7.489 ($8.34) million.


On October 19, David Fahrenthold, a reporter with The Washington Post who says he “covers President Trump's businesses and conflicts of interest," tweeted:

When @realdonaldtrump visited his Irish resort, it required a huge contingent of Irish police, who bought their food from...Trump. Irish govt paid Trump $15k just for their snacks!!


Fahrenthold followed up by sharing pictures of the bill received by An Garda SÃ*ochána (Ireland's National Police Force) from Trump International Golf Links and Hotel in Doonbeg


When @realdonaldtrump made a side trip to his Irish golf club this summer, dozens of Irish cops were sent to protect him. Then Trump’s company charged the cops more than $100K for food and coffee.
Here’s the bill:




The itemized bill was dated from June 6 and included a stamp from the Gardai finance office that was dated June 20. The two-page bill features mainly meals, snacks, and room stay charges incurred between June 3 and June 7.






Fahrenthold, who pointed out that the figures were first reported upon by Gordon Deegan of The Irish Times, noted that one charge of €875 ($973) was for "additional tea and coffee due to inclement weather:"
