Good ad.

I have a question though, does the POTUS have the authority or power to cut Congress's pay?

The Potus doesn't have the authority to raise or lower taxes either.

We have the ability to throw Congress out and replace them with a citizen Congress. I believe we have started that already. We need a President who understands this.

No, but he has the power to veto bills and shut things down until somebody blinks. Whether that happens is a whole different ballgame.
