WASHINGTON — President Trump said he would “look into” revoking Hunter Biden’s Secret Service security detail on Monday after the former first son, surrounded by more than a dozen agents, was spotted on an “ultra-luxurious” getaway in South Africa when he was due for a deposition in court.

“I would say if there are 18 with Hunter Biden, that will be something I look at this afternoon,” Trump told reporters during a visit to the Kennedy Center on Monday.

The taxpayer-funded trip to Cape Town had former President Joe Biden’s son staying in a $500-a-night villa, described on its website as an “ultra-luxurious designer home with spectacular 180 degrees unobstructed views of the sea.”

Trump, 78, also expressed displeasure at Hunter being in South Africa after his administration halted foreign aid to the country due to the government taking away land from farmers as an Apartheid reparations measure.

“South Africa, you know, is on a watch list. You know that, yes, because what they’re doing to people is brutal, and I’ve stopped having money go to South Africa. You know that’s billions of dollars,” Trump said.

“So he’s in South Africa. That’s really interesting. All right, I’m going to take a look at that.”
