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.

I'm sure that's just more money he can throw into killing Mexicans and gays.
By the way I was being sarcastic. I think it's great that he's said no to it. He doesn't need it anyway and it shows that he really cares about doing what's right for the country. He's not in this for himself or the money. He's in this for America.

As loong as this doesn't wind up being one of those scams were they're "working for free" and then wind up getting a "gift" of a massive amount of cash down the road that's more than what they would have made before anyways.

I don't like this. I think he should take the salary. Another leader, John Key, does not take his salary - and it's arguable he uses it to virtue signal.
