Trump's Salary... something good that isn't much on the news

Discussion in 'Politics' started by Scataphagos, Feb 18, 2020.

  1. "...On Friday, the Trump administration released their annual report to Congress on White House Office Personnel. It includes the name, status, salary and position title of all 377 White House employees. The report also said that Trump decided not to take a dime of his salary; instead he donated it to an excellent cause.

    The report also showed that President Trump is good at saving money. The total annual White House salaries under Trump are $35.8 million vs. $60.9 million under Obama, a savings of $25.1 million.

    Here are some other key findings: There are 140 fewer employees on White House staff under Trump than under Obama at this point in their respective presidencies. Thirty-nine fewer staffers are dedicated to The First Lady of the United States (FLOTUS). Currently, there are only five staffers dedicated to Melania Trump vs. forty-four staffers who served Michelle Obama (FY2009).

    However, it's what the report said Trump did with this salary that has everyone talking. Instead of taking his salary, Trump donated all $400,000 to the Department of the Interior where it will be used for construction and repair needs at military cemeteries! It's great to have a President who cares about our brave military men and women so much!

    Oh, and where's the media coverage of this? That's right, they don't cover anything decent that the President does..."

    Good to see the secret services expenditures were posted.

    "Hey guise, this shit show of a WH can't keep personnel on board, it's good news!"

    Tell us again about your Vietnam war days risking your life for everyone (as USAF ground staff in Japan) and maybe another bit about Infowars.

    Fucking idiot. Trump has his staff numbers low as he is up to mobster stuff and can't have too many witnesses.

    Now remind is how many HUNDREDS of years of presidential salary his trips to his private businesses are costing.

    Ha ha ha. You listed a few specific categories of expenses where reductions in the Trump administration over the previous administration, according to the Trump administration, are a few 10s of millions. Meanwhile Trump antics are resulting in hundreds of millions of tax dollars flowing into Trump's coffers. Perhaps you'd would like to check into the secret services room rates and gulf cart fees at Trump resorts and gulf courses.

    Here is some bedtime reading for naive fools such as yourself.
