President Trump donations another $100,000

[TheBannerofHomuraAkemi]

Cool, 1000000 is just .5% of the amount of money he has taxpayers spend just to go golfing on weekends.

Trump’s Mar-a-Lago visits cost Coast Guard nearly $20M

Wait I thought Trump said he wouldn't go golfing.

I predict confirmation bias and general cognitive dissonance will make the Usual Suspects ignore this while continuing to sing his praises for his "donation".

$100,000 is a drop in the bucket for Trump. It's a sign of patriotism. Attorneys, on the other hand, will do nothing without a monetary return. Even pro bono is never kept quiet, so they get "something" out of it.

BS

Why did Obama and Hillary come here to destroy Libya, who is supposed to be our ally?

Who called them?



Don't forget his generosity towards terrorists.
Obama funds Muslim Brotherhood

Why are you focusing on two people who aren't even in office?

Interesting, he's from Libya. And likes RW talking points. Very interesting. Lot's of new ones popped up recently.

Let's get to the numbers.

Donations during presidency

-Obama (8 years) = $1.2 million
-Trump (4 years?) = $1.6 million

Trump would achieve the Obama # twice as fast!

Obama net worth $12 million / $1.2 million donation = donated 10% of his wealth
Trump net worth $500 million / $1.6 million donation = donated 0.0032% of his wealth

Now, Trump may be worth more or less, no one knows, Mueller knows. This was based on 4 years for Trump, but may be less.
The point is, he's tossing pennies around and supposedly he's the moral person...?

Critical thinking is important and should be taught in schools. Say NO to republicans wanting to eliminate critical thinking!

Yes, very interesting ...

“In the FY 2019 Budget, President Trump proposes a total of $198.6 billion for the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). This request, an increase of $12.1 billion over 2018, will ensure the Nation’s Veterans receive high-quality health care and timely access to benefits and services.”

Annual Budget Submission - Office of Budget

Oh good, I am happy to be wrong on that one.

Interesting point

 

[fantome profane]

While running for President, Trump promised, if elected, to forego the salary and to donate it. Each quarter he has been in office he has done that.

Peanuts when compared to the billions he as scammed by abusing his power as President.

Hes a rich Billionair over a couple of billion.

 

[Riders]

Hes a rich billionair he makes over hundred million a year in assets . If he would donate a few million a year that would be respectful considering he probably makes over a hundred million a year.

Yeah I know, but I just love posting **** that shows how bad Trump really is.

 

[Phantasman]

Actually it is more like $600,000. The salary of the President is $400,000 per year. President Trump has earned $600,000 before taxes, so far, and has donated all or it.

Yeah. She said per quarter. If ya hate Trump, you'll find a way to hate anything he does. Good or bad.

 

[tytlyf]

That's a common RW talking point. Are you saying people are wrong to hate Donald if he does something bad?

 

[Epic Beard Man]

Barack Obama and Hillary's fault @ 4:39

 

[Kangaroo Feathers]

Yeah. She said per quarter. If ya hate Trump, you'll find a way to hate anything he does. Good or bad.

If his salary is less than what he's making from emoluments breeches, it's bit of a hollow token, isn't it? If he were to donate all of his INCOME he's making from his position, then he'd be doing something good. As it is, he's robbing you, the tax payer, and throwing you his scraps while pretending to be magnanimous.

STOP. FALLING. FOR. IT.

 

[Kangaroo Feathers]

IMHO, hating him is wasted energy. He's worth nothing stronger than contempt. That said, you do make an excellent point, pointing out the Trumpette's Freudian talking point.

 

[metis]

If Trump is supposedly being so charitable, then why can't we see his tax returns like we've seen all other recent presidents do to see if there's any smoke & mirrors involved? During the campaign, he promised he would, and Trump is always true to his word, right?

I wonder if this is more or less than the amount he has charged the Secret Service to rent golf carts at the Trump National Golf Course and Mar-a-Lago. This article was written less than a year into his term:

Secret Service has spent nearly $150k on golf cart rentals since Trump took office: report

Just watch the imminent mental gymnastics to turn this rort into a virtue.
