Donald Trump is literally the most selfless president we have seen in generations. The man has endured witch-hunts, attempted assassinations, and bogus impeachments yet he still refuses to take a salary.
The Gateway Pundit reported,
President-elect Donald Trump has announced he will once again forgo the annual $450,000 presidential salary during his upcoming term.
This mirrors his decision from his previous term, where he notably donated his salary to various government agencies and initiatives, reflecting his intention to serve without personal financial gain.
Speaking in an interview with leftist hack Kristen Welker, Trump made it clear that his decision to reject the presidential salary is not driven by financial need, but by a desire to lead by example and reduce government expenditure.
Trump’s decision to forgo the salary during his first term was part of his broader commitment to fiscal responsibility. Rather than keeping the $400,000 annual compensation, he donated it to various federal agencies, including the National Park Service and the Department of Education, helping support key government functions while setting a strong example of selfless public service.
Throughout his presidency, Trump’s net worth remained robust at an estimated $2.3 billion, a far cry from the financial trajectories of other former presidents, who saw their wealth skyrocket post-office.
For comparison, former President Bill Clinton entered the White House with a net worth of $1.3 million in 1993. By the time he left office, that figure had swelled to around $120 million, according to Newsweek.
Similarly, Barack Obama started his presidency in 2009 with a modest net worth of $1.3 million but saw it grow to approximately $70 million after his time in office.
Whether the fake news mainstream media acknowledges it or not, Trump continues to lead by example—putting America first in every sense of the word.
Donald Trump has shown unwavering dedication to this nation and set the example of what it looks like to put America first. Any claims that he is only in it for himself simply make no sense. If Trump was doing this for his own gain, the numbers would look a lot different.
