President Trump now noting that he isn't being paid to be president and has given away his salary: "Nobody said thank you. Nobody said thank you very much."

He adds, "I ran and everybody knew I was rich person. I built a company and people knew that."

1. I don't suppose anyone had the nerve to shout out what his golf trips have cost? nt

8. Trump certainly didn't thank us.

And doesn't feel any obligation to us either.

[Capt. America]

28. This times 1000.

[catbyte]

2. You get what you pay for...

On edit: We'll thank that thing just as soon as it reimburses us taxpayers the approximately $133,000,000 of our money that thing has wasted on golf outings.

3. We CANNOT wait until they report how much Trump has spent on his

golf weekends.

[Under The Radar]

4. I haven't given up hope on his tax returns but I guess that too is on hold

[getagrip_already]

5. I call shenanigans - trump has never given away a penny where he didn't get a dime in return

Just look at the trump foundation. corrupt to the core. And the inauguration; where did that money go?

Charity my posterior. I don'[t even believe he isn't taking a salary. We haven't even seen his tax returns.

[Blue_true]

36. I agree. He is making money off the presidency, that should be very clear to everyone

by now.

[procon]

6. Needy old bastard, ain't he? nt

[Cirque du So-What]

7. Let's make a deal, whistledick

Take your salary, but pay for your golf outings.

[marble falls]

9. Fuck you very much, Donnie, from the absolute bottom of my colon.

[PoliticAverse]

10. I'll be thankful when he's no longer President. n/t

[Backseat Driver]

11. So now we're being ungrateful???

Non compos mentis!

[jls4561]

12. How much do the American people spend on Merde-a-Plague-o golfing weekends?

[TreasonousBastard]

13. How do we know that? And why should I thank him-- he didn't...

give shit to me.

BTW, he's not rich any more, if he ever was. His golf courses are all on the rocks, his buildings are leveraged to the hilt, even if he tends to own only 5% or so.

He couldn't even pull off a pump&dump a few years ago. He thought it was a great idea that he invented, but everyone was wise to him from the beginning.

14. "Nobody said thank you"

Well Boo-fucking-hoo. Someone call a Wambulance.

President Trump now noting that he isn't being paid to be president and has given away his salary

Horseshit.

[pat_k]

15. I'd like to compare the amount...

... Obama has given to charity in the past two decades to the amount DT has given to charity.

I have a funny feeling that Barak will come out on top, but what do I know?

DT looking for a thank you for giving $400,000 to various agencies/charities each year he's president says a lot more about the block of coal he calls a heart than anything else.

People who care and give from the heart aren't looking for thank you's. The thank you is in the good the money helps to accomplish in the world.

[Harker]

16. One word... emoluments.

He's getting paid, alright.

[Capt. America]

29. x1000

[CatMor]

17. I have a hard time believing he is not taking ..

the salary. Probably endorses the checks payable to the order of Melania Trump.

[TDale313]

23. Oh, I think he may have donated it as a PR move...

Although he’s lied about donations before. That said, his salary is a fraction of how he intends on profiting financially from being in office.

[CatMor]

24. Recently he donated a Quarterly salary payment ..

that would be 100,000. He didnt say anything about the other 300,000.00. His businesses aren't doing well.

[NCDem47]

18. Always aggrieved.

Always.

And this...

Will...

Not...

Stop...

[milestogo]

19. Fuck you very much.

There, I said it.

[spanone]

20. Don't really know what species he is.

[TDale313]

21. Oh, he's making bank. Count on it.

He may have donated the salary as a PR move, but he has figured every angle imaginable to profit off this gig.

[smirkymonkey]

25. +1000

Tenfold, at the very minimum.

[Demovictory9]

30. yep

[Harker]

22. The bobbleheads around him are constantly

thanking him for his "leadership."

Maybe if they licked his shoes...

[IcyPeas]

33. Ugghh. It makes me ill

Mike pence is the worst.

[Harker]

41. Easily. n/t

[GeorgeGist]

26. If I was him ...

I'd quit.

[Harker]

32. Quit the phony job?

Or quit being him?

[bamagal62]

27. Fuck him.

[exboyfil]

31. So a billionaire gives away $500K/yr.

Do a football dance. That is like most people giving away $50-$500 (based on a $100K to $1M net worth).

[gratuitous]

34. I'm not buying it

Release your tax returns, Needy Amin. I need to see independent proof for anything you say because you have such an extensive record of lying to the American people.

[ooky]

35. According to this, his golf has cost 278 years of presidential salaries

and he "hasn't thanked" the taxpayers.

https://www.politicususa.com/2019/08/17/cost-of-trump-golf-trips.html

And that was back in August of last year.

[Mc Mike]

42. Thanks, ooky. Up to 296 years, last time I saw it.

As of 12/22/19, it cost us $118 million for him to golf, 296 years worth of presidential salary.

[COLGATE4]

37. Trumplethinskin is pretty needy these days. nt

[marlakay]

38. Can we pay to make him leave this minute?

I would donate.

[Faux pas]

39. First

we need to thank him for turning our country into a smoldering pile of rubble

[UTUSN]

40. Uh, note to SHITLER: Keep the salary, pay Secret Service + Javanka's grifting + etc.
