Read our privacy policy US taxpayers spent more than $64,000 for President Donald Trump’s eldest son and his girlfriend to visit Paris for a two-day vacation in 2018. Secret Service documents reveal that the trip by Donald Trump Jr and Kimberly Guilfoyle included a stay at a $1,000-a-night hotel near the Champs-Elysees. Neither Mr Trump nor Ms Guilfoyle are government employees, but it is standard for family members of the president to receive Secret Service protection.
