Trump has spent $133K on White House furnishings so far
President Trump spent about $133,000 in taxpayer money on furnishings for the White House between January and May, Mic reported Wednesday.
Former President Barack Obama spent just about $51,000 during the same period, according to White House records — though the same records show Obama spent more money later that year, narrowing the gap between how much each president spent on furnishings.
Obama spent about $70,000 during June of 2008, compared to just $17,000 for Trump this month. That still puts Trump at roughly $24,000 ahead of Obama's furniture spending at this point during Obama's presidency.
According to the Mic report, one of Trump's top dollar orders was a custom conference table from the Kittinger Company, Inc. that cost $13,000. According to Mic, former President Richard Nixon also had a Kittinger conference table, but paid for it himself.
