FTR I'm not suggesting he hasn't benefited at all, and the point you


make is a good example. I don't know the details of that arrangement, and I don't bash him or Melania for making that decision to stay until school lets out, but if for no other reason than optics alone, he should've let that space be had for below market rental rates if not rent free. Same for anyone paying to stay at Mar A Lago, or Trump DC, while on official visits/business. It's not like they couldn't handle the reduced income.

I'm not sure he hasn't done that. I don't recall seeing anything claiming otherwise, and I would assume the WaPo, NYT and others would've found ways to expose that if they were "cashing in" as is being claimed here.
