This includes medical, food, transportation and communication services, and the office is responsible for holding onto the so-called nuclear football in case the president needs to authorize a nuclear attack.<br\/><br\/> The government signed a $2.39 million lease to rent this 3,475-square-foot space near Trump&#8217;s penthouse for a total of 18 months.<br\/><br\/> This makes the space the most expensive in Trump Tower. The runner-up listings ring in at $50,000 per month, <a class=\"\" href=\"http:\/\/streeteasy.com\/building\/trump-tower#tab_building_detail=3\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Link: http:\/\/streeteasy.com\/building\/trump-tower#tab_building_detail=3\">according to Street Easy<\/a>, which lists three apartments at this price, ranging in size from 3,065 to 3,725\u00a0square feet.<br\/><br\/><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Several officials have indicated that the rental does not\u00a0financially\u00a0benefit the president, including James A. MacStravic, the acting undersecretary of defense for acquisition, technology and logistics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;To alleviate your principal concern (i.e. that the president of the United States might financially benefit from the lease effort), please know that this residential space is privately owned and that lease negotiations have been with the owner\u2019s representatives only,&#8221; MacStravic wrote in a letter to Rep. Jackie Speier, D-Calif., on March 3.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to city records, the<\/p>\n\n\n\n<a class=\"\"
