And they don't even use that office because it's too small.

This is just another way for Trump to live off the illegally imposed monthly $10 and $20 auto-donations from people who can hardly afford it. Like I said, if Trump met one of these people on the street, he wouldn't stop to give them the time of day. It's like him jacking-up the cost of his hotels rooms over the weekend of September 18th, when the next 'stop the steal' rally at the Capital is scheduled to be held. He doesn't want anyone wearing camo-gear or red MAGA hats and T-shirts walking around the lobby of his DC hotel or sitting in the bar. So just raise the least expensive room rate to $2,400/night for that weekend to keep the lowlifes out, but if some well-healed donor wants to come for the rally, that's OK, the hotel will accommodate them, for a price.

Trump PAC Lavishing $37K a Month on Rent at Trump Tower as Other Tenants Flee: Report

Trump Tower is reportedly struggling to lease out its prime office space during the disruption of the pandemic, but it does have one reliable tenant: the ex-president’s own political operation. According to The Washington Post, the Make America Great Again PAC has been paying the Trump Organization $37,541.67 each month to rent some rarely used office space on the 15th floor of the NYC building. The Post reports the super PAC was previously paying $3,000 a month to rent a kiosk in the tower’s lobby, even when the lobby was closed.

Campaign-finance experts said the arrangement doesn’t appear to be illegal but is ethically dodgy. “He’s running a con,” said Paul S. Ryan from watchdog group Common Cause. “Talking about political expenses—but, in reality, raising money for self-enrichment.” Trump spokeswoman Liz Harrington said the PAC is renting the space at “market rate... to help President Trump build a financial juggernaut to help elect America First conservatives and flip both the House and Senate to the Republicans in the midterm elections.”
