I would LOVE to see him donate it to a lgbt cause or to some inner city youth programs. Not as much for the betterment of those things (although that would be a bonus) but mainly so the guy that posted on Facebook about needing LGBT safe houses would look slighty stupid.

Nah that sounds like a stupid waste of money IN MY OPINION!!!.... So... there are a slew of much better causes actually. Sure it would be a fine gesture afterall, but with current events around the world i feel it would be better spent into an are that would actually benefit all of mankind and not one small percentage of the population. Thats called "pandering".

This is the most virtue signaling thing I've read all day.

Scott Adams suggested Trump should make an "un-Hitler" like gesture and your idea sounds like it would be just the thing. http://blog.dilbert.com/post/152998516891/the-de-hitlerization-of-your-brain

the problem with this retarded little PR stunt is that it both rewards bad behavior and emboldens them

I'm sure he will do something like that, even on a bigger scale than this, but liberals will deny it, not report on it and when it is talked about they will say he only did it because ______ (fill in the blank).

I hope so. We really need a selfless savior to get us out of the mess we have elected our selves into. We need to repeal laws with out hurting our values. Right now most people are in violation of some regulation everyday. Draining the swamp Washington was built on along the Potomac. The bureaucrats have to go, they see them selves as the permanent governors and the elected offices as temporary help. Everybody wants a government job but no body wants to work for US.

Wish people had realized that during Obama's run. He lied about everything and shit on the constitution yet people consider him a good president for whatever twisted reason.

He should take the money, even if it is pocket change to him. He's working for us now.

Yeah, because that salary has done so much to enforce that fact in the past.

It is a tax avoidance scheme. The money he makes as president is nothing compared to the money he loses in taxes. His tax cuts will put far more money in his pocket compared to his salary.
Meanwhile, Trump is waving his hands and saying "Oh, look over here at this pittance I've sacrificed because I'm so virtuous!"

His tax returns would be subject to FOIA requests if he accepted a government salary!

This liberal won't. I see it as an unexpectedly gallant gesture from a man who shows all the signs of being an effective leader and a good president.
The liberally retarded might try to twist it into something inane, but they're idiots and should be ignored.

Master stroke!
