So do you think that his loan on his $18 Million residence is a standard conforming mortgage loan with a 15 or 30 year term.
Hint: The media already reported it is not your typical conforming loan but more like a short term commercial real estate loan.
Bill Clinton's Secret Service agents were forced to testify to a grand jury investigating him in 1998. Why is Trump exempt from this?
I think presidents should be able to work without worrying about being spied on by SS agents.

Does your reasoning apply to private citizens?
Should executives' body guards also be exempt from testifying? Should the executive be indicted/sued?
No.Private citizens have the choice to have bodyguards around them,presidents do not.
Ok, this is what I was after: your reasoning.
Hadn't considered this viewpoint. However, citizens volunteer to hold office.
Thoughts? Does that change anything for you?
Thats true but the country needs presidents and SS agents are around classified information that they shouldn't be able to tell imo.There also shouldn't be more slime balls like Dan Bongino trying to profit from dumb conservatives from their time as SS agents.
Secret Service and book publication
Bongino joined the United States Secret Service in 1999 as a special agent,[5][2] leaving the New York Field Office in 2002 to become an instructor at the Secret Service Training Academy in Beltsville, Maryland. In 2006, he was assigned to the Presidential Protection Division during George W. Bush's second term. He remained on protective duty after Barack Obama became president, leaving in May 2011 to run for the U.S. Senate.[5]
Bongino's first book, Life Inside the Bubble, about his career as a Secret Service agent, was published in 2013. The book discusses his experiences protecting presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama and investigating federal crimes along with his 2012 run for the U.S. Senate in Maryland.[6]
Bongino was criticized by former colleagues at the Secret Service for using his Secret Service background as part of his run for political office and for his claim of having secret information based on conversations he overheard in the Obama White House.[7][8][1] A former colleague criticized him for trying to use his proximity to President Barack Obama in his political career: "He's trying to draw attention to himself and he's hijacking the Secret Service brand. That's all he's got going for him." Bongino said he had access to "high-level discussions" in the White House. Unnamed former colleagues said he "tends to exaggerate his importance on the presidential detail and exaggerate his proximity" and that "We don't sit in on meetings at the White House. We don't sit in on high-level meetings."[7] In response to the criticism from an anonymous former colleague, Bongino stated "There's nothing confidential in the book" and "It's not a tell-all. It's my tale of the Secret Service."[9] He rejected Birtherism, the claims that President Obama was born outside the United States.[10]
His second book, The Fight: A Secret Service Agent's Inside Account of Security Failings and the Political Machine was published in January 2016.[11]
A commercial loan on a non income producing residence? I smell bullspit. Jumbo loans often have available terms of 30 years. Down payments and rates are often higher than on conventional mortgages. In the end, it is what is negotiated by the parties.
Try again.
