    Washington, Jefferson, etc. We used to have real statesmen for politicians.

      The biggest one of all perhaps: Trump. He donates his salary and uses a lot of his own money for expenses. He has often commented about how much being president has cost him. Plus as being president he has no time to oversee his 500 businesses who employ 34,000 people.

        Got a better idea. Trump takes his salary and pays for his own golf outings. Could also charge the same amount as BHO.

          Oh and the bill the taxpayers will get for daily AF1 flights between the White House and the rallies. Will the campaign reimburse? Ha, fat chance.

              So? Jeff Bezos can drop $100 and it's not worth the time to pick it up. Comparing their economic decisions to ours tells us nothing. If you want to see how charitable a guy Trump is, look at his long history.

                  TDS in full swing again?

                  Oscar mentioned Trump paying for his golf with his own salary,
                  he draws none,, so ??

                  and yes, he can afford to pay ,, and may for all we know,


                  as far as complaints about SS and expenses, we complained about the jaunts the Obama's tood,
                  likely the Bush's (both) Clinton etc etc,,


                  like the weather, we (people) complain about it all the time,
