Strange to me that so many were fooled by this "man". I've heard so many trump supporting friends say, "but he didn't accept any of his presidential salary!" As if this makes him a good man. He is worth 3 billion dollars. So, 400,000 + 4 = 1.6 million. This article says since he lost the election, he has transferred 1.3 million from his political contributions, A.K.A his supporter's money, directly into his private business. I'm also guessing that out of the 250 million he has raised since HE LOST THE ELECTION, there will probably be some more going into his pockets. The president also receives a $50,000 expense allowance, a $100,000 non-taxable travel account and $19,000 for entertainment each year. I'm guessing he probably used that up. That's another 676,000. I would say that wonderful, honorable, Christianly, everyman has broken even. Wouldn't you?
