So, you think that Rex Tillerson should try to hitch a ride with Melania Trump to some State Dignitary's funeral, a State Dinner or other official ceremony, to save tax payer money?

No one is saying try to, I think he should not try NOT to. Huge difference.

Yes we must to be very careful with those tax payer dimes must'nt we?
Like a plane ride vs golf dates at the resort every weekend. Paying for the first family to maintain a separate residence in another state or taking everybody in the family and all the pet staffers on an international tour on our dime.
I understand completely your ire at this flagrant waste.

It's okay if the pets are service animals.

It's a relevant comparison. Why invalidate the question.
What if it were Tillerson and Melania? Is it required they would ride together to anything at all?

He's not in the government and he's not getting government funding is he?
And btw you're trolling your own thread going off topic here. LOL
But really how much can you say about a nothing story anyway.

Why not? Doesn't the First Lady and the Secretary of State have separate budgets and agendas? Who else should try to hitch a ride with the First Lady's caravan?

If Tillerson said he wanted his own plane when it's not needed I would call out him too.

Apparently not since Hillary was asking, meaning it's NOT standard practice .. and the response was not 'of course you will because that's the norm'.

Oh? It's standard practice is it? I doubt that very much. I'm looking forward to news of Rex Tillerson catching a ride with Melania Trump, in order to save tax payer money!
