Donald Trump on refusing presidential salary: "I'm not taking it"
It wasn’t long after Donald Trump’s victory this week that questions began to circulate about what would happen to his business empire and income when the business mogul becomes president.
During his first television interview as president-elect on Sunday, Trump told 60 Minutes’ Lesley Stahl that he wouldn’t take a salary as president.
“Well, I’ve never commented on this, but the answer is no,” Trump said. “I think I have to by law take $1, so I’ll take $1 a year. But it’s a -- I don’t even know what it is.”
Stahl reminded the president-elect, “[That’s] $400,000 you’re giving up.”
Again, Trump answered, “No, I’m not gonna take the salary. I’m not taking it.”

Will Americans have to wait for a Democratic president before the media reports on the National Debt and deficit?
Our congress critters can not make any legislation to bolster or create jobs let alone pass legislation to fund for the higher unemployment that is rising. Because, our Prez in his great orange dementia wisdom fired the director of labor statistics.
DOJ says they have way too much Epstein files to redact and edit for the employees left over from the DOGE firings.
But they could, could call in ICE to go through the files.
But they won't.
They can call out the military to sift the Epstein files but they won't
Calling in Seal Team 6 is not enough. Perhaps a Marine battallion to storm the beaches of Epstein Island and clear the files..
The beatings will continue until morale improves....
