"The money" - which is US Dollars, our sovereign currency - came from the national government, of course.

The question is a category error. Where do you "get" the promises that you MAKE to others?

Not a category error. How does the government obtain tax money? From taxes. Who pays taxes? People and businesses. Who spends tax money? Only the government. What is Trump using to pay for this trip, his money or tax money?

It totally is a category error. Your first two questions here are red herrings. The answer to the third question is NO ONE. The fourth question is a category error.
