He’s playing silly games like this crap when he still hasn’t filled key pentagon positions.

Give up $300,000 salary, while he and his family make millions off of Russia, China trademarks, business dealings, constant promotion of the brand, etc.

Hmm…seems like a tradeoff he’s willing to make.

BTW he’s still yet to offer a shred of proof that he has in any way severed ties with his business.

Islamic Relief USA could probably use the money to help help resettle the refugees you refuse to accept.

I’d propose that our so-called President donate his salary to some of his supporters to help them buy the healthcare that they’ll no longer be able to afford, thanks to his “beautiful” healthcare bill.

The press should tell him to give it to Planned Parenthood. Or the NEA. Or the Great Lakes Clean up Fund. Any one of the thousands of things this administration is screwing up royally.

Maybe he can donate it to help pay for all the millions of dollars he wasted going on vacation every weekend. Its a drop in the bucket still but it is at least something.

I’d say give one third to Islamic Relief USA, one third to an analogous organization for Hispanics/Latinos, and the remaining third to Jon Ossof’s campaign down in Georgia.

We all know exactly what Trump “promises” are worth; absolutely nothing. As Sam Goldwyn once pronounced, “An oral agreement is not worth the paper it’s printed on.”

And of course his few hundred thousand dollar salary is chump change compared to the hundreds of millions he will use the power of the presidency to steer to his businesses in the next four years.

In the shades of daily B.S, this one is a deep, dark brown turd.

Cute. Will he also “donate” the interest he earns on the money while it sits in his bank account until the end of the year?

You think this is fucking joke?

Meanwhile, Kushner gets $400 million from the Chinese.

There are so many better uses of these pixels.

When Trump says he’ll do a thing he clearly doesn’t really want to do, it’s always in the future at a time that sounds specific while yet being kind of vague too and thirdly is pretty precisely calculated to when he expects people to stop nagging him about it. I doubt he would have enough discipline to graduate from high school at this point. But he’s running the country. SMH

Presser version of a Donnie tweet. Diversion. Fuck it. Ignore it. Hope the media isn’t so stupid as to headline this or simply announce they’ll take a ballot at the end of the year in time for Donnie to cut the check.

What’s $400K? He’s too busy signing multi million deals with China, Mexico and Russia. So far.

Refuse to play Trump / Spicer’s game. We don’t have time for games.

But were an organization to receive additional funding:

Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW)
