White House salaries under Trump are $35.8 million vs. $60.9 million under Obama
President Trump's White House expense Vs Obama | Today | Vanity

Posted on 01/21/2020 4:27:56 PM PST by entropy12

On Friday, the Trump administration released their annual report to Congress on White House Office Personnel. It includes the name, status, salary and position title of all 377 White House employees. The report also said that Trump decided not to take a dime of his salary; instead he donated it to an excellent cause.

The report also showed that President Trump is good at saving money. The total annual White House salaries under Trump are $35.8 million vs. $60.9 million under Obama, a savings of $25.1 million.

Here are some other key findings: There are 140 fewer employees on White House staff under Trump than under Obama at this point in their respective presidencies. Thirty-nine fewer staffers are dedicated to The First Lady of the United States (FLOTUS). Currently, there are only five staffers dedicated to Melania Trump vs. forty-four staffers who served Michelle Obama (FY2009).

However, it's what the report said Trump did with this salary that has everyone talking. Instead of taking his salary, Trump donated all $400,000 to the Department of the Interior where it will be used for construction and repair needs at military cemeteries! It's great to have a President who cares about our brave military men and women so much!

Oh, and where's the media coverage of this? That's right, they don't cover anything decent that the President does..

Mike needed two sets of staff, for obvious reasons, plus all the Fraud’s buds and in-laws were on the payroll.

FLOTUS slashed salaries, too!

Melania only has a handful of assistants and does a lot of the actual WORK herself, versus Mooch who needed a staff of 15-20 sycophants to tend to her every whim each day!

*SPIT*

The Obama White House must have had people tripping over each other.

Maybe tripping over their onesies. Who even knows if they showed up.
