MSNBC 'Republican' Elise Jordan Unaware Trump Donates Prez Pay
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

If the liberal media's going to hate on President Trump, at least let them get their facts straight . . .

When it comes to visceral detestation of Donald Trump, nothing tops MSNBC "Republicans." They exceed even long-time lefties in their emotional antagonism toward the prez. People like Nicolle Wallace come to mind. Subbing for Wallace on her MSNBC show this afternoon, Elise Jordan, a former aide to Pres. George W. Bush, provided another example of the genre.

Ripping President Trump over the shutdown, an overwrought Jordan declared that Trump "won't skip paychecks" as a result of the shutdown.

Technically that's true, since by law the President is deemed an essential employee. But Jordan was apparently unaware that Trump has never cashed a presidential paycheck, donating each one instead to different government departments to fund good works.

Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

Another MSNBC ‘Republican’ so unhinged by TDS that she can’t bother to know simple facts.

Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.

My wife thinks Don is some kind of power-mad megalomaniac or something.

I mention what he does with his presidential salary and get blank stares or some nonsensical response.

TDS is a form of insanity based on an inability to assimilate reality.

That’s because when those non-essential workers eventually go back to work, we give them BACK PAY for the time they DIDN’T work!

Someone in PDJT’S inner circle should have tweeted this reminder. Ignorant masses stay ignorant unless they are corrected often.

Do they repay the unemployment money they receive? I sure would have like a job where you get paid vacations because of inept congress critters.
