  1. FDR had Harry Hopkins, unelected, not confirmed by Congress, often lived in the White House, great friends with Eleanor Roosevelt, too. No unprecedented

  4. ? Elon moved to Canada with his Canadian mother when he was just 17. He's not an American citizen. An African-American.

  5. FDR had Harry Hopkins, an unelected advisor who often lived in the WH. He was FDR's envoy to Stalin and had other duties at that level. Hopkins was not elected nor confirmed by Congress. Roosevelt did it, why not Trump?

  6. *Harry Hopkins* stayed at the White House during Franklin D. Roosevelt's presidency. From **1940 to 1943**, Hopkins lived in the White House and played a crucial role as Roosevelt's chief advisor on foreign policy, especially concerning relations with the United Kingdom and the Soviet Union. He occupied "The Rose Suite" and was so close to Roosevelt that he was often referred to as the "Deputy President".

  7.  @lightning9494  All you got? No one side "exactly" but not unprecedented. Bill Clinton had Vince Foster stayed in the **White House Family Quarters**, also known as the **"White House Residence"**. This area is where the President and their immediate family reside, and it includes various rooms and offices used by senior staff and advisors. Is there anything specific you'd like to know about Vince Foster's time at the White House?

  8.  @lightning9494  During Barack Obama's presidency *Valerie Jarrett* served as a *Senior Advisor to the President* from 2009 to 2017. She stayed at the White House **Overseeing the Offices of Public Engagement and Intergovernmental Affairs**: Jarrett worked to mobilize elected officials, business leaders, community advocates, and diverse groups to support the President's agenda. - **Supporting key initiatives**: Jarrett was involved in efforts to end sexual assault, raise the minimum wage, advocate for workplace policies that empower working families, and promote entrepreneurship and early childhood education. Not unprecedented.

  11. Biden stacked the government with "loyalists". That's how our system works, not like yours, which are still patterned after the failed Soviet model.
