    Ben Carson said the purchase of a $31,000 dining room set for his office wasn't about decoration. It was about safety.http://nyti.ms/2FQ6LSY

        Ben Carson said his wife Candy had made the decision to purchase the $31K dining set while he was tending to “agency affairs,” which means he was busy cutting $8.8 billion from the HUD budget and leaving hundreds of thousands of families homeless.

        Is it a bulletproof table or what? Just give the table a gun. Problem solved. 🤷🏻‍♀️
