President Trump’s four adult children joined him on this week’s state visit to the United Kingdom, despite just one having an official role in the administration.
A White House official didn’t confirm why Donald Trump Jr., Eric Trump and Tiffany Trump attended – but told CBS news the three Trumps personally paid to be on the trip.
Only Ivanka Trump and her husband Jared Kushner have roles in the administration. Trump’s sons are said to be in control of Trump’s business affairs while he serves as president, in a questionable effort to avoid conflicts of interest.
It’s not the first time the extended Trump family has seemed to grab sought after spots in a ceremonial events during Trump’s time in office.

Yeah, right, the kids paid their own way. How about the Secret Service protection? That is still paid for by the taxpayers.
The Trumps are like the Obamas. Every “state trip” is a family vacation.
