Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey said that the security cost estimate for the Oct. 10 Trump rally at the Target Center was “not extortion.”
Asked about the Trump campaign charge that the city is severely overestimating the cost of the event, citing a $20,000 estimate for an event President Barack Obama held in 2009, Frey told reporters on Oct. 8 it was different then because Obama was coming “on behalf of the office as president of the United States, not as a campaign event.”
