          Why was it necessary for him to be separated from his family at the holidays? He has a huge house, a plane & helicopter available. Not to mention all communication technology available. Sounds to me like another example of this guy not managing his time or resources very well.

          Sounds to me like someone's family chose to spend their holidays elsewhere without him. All guarded by a scores of unpaid Secret Service folks also separated from their families at the holidays. I do hope he mentioned that in his sycophantic little speech.

          Not sure....I think they’ve all drunk the Kool Aid! That’s the scariest part! That entire group is now made up of the ‘B team’ placed solely for their willingness to be a sycophant to trump and not for their knowledge, skills or experience.

          Trump's immediate family resides in DC. They could have been together for the holidays if they wanted to. So Trump didn't give up his holidays with his family. Trump's family chose to not spend the holidays with him.
