I agree. It's not like they don't all make a mint afterward from book deals, speaking engagements, etc. And since most of them (Trump being the obvious exception) have been in public office for years prior to becoming POTUS, they all stand to receive a cushy gov't pension, too...right? (If I am wrong, please provide some evidence.)
Did you just out yourself as "Joe's" personal accountant/CPA? You must be to have knowledge of this "fact". Anyway, see my comments above.
With Biden's 47+ years in public office, don't you think he's pretty much got it made financially? Since I am *not* his personal accountant, I can only guess, but based on his "work" history, I'd say it's more likely than not.
"they all stand to receive a cushy gov't pension, too...right?" WRONG!
He's rich but he's not Trump rich -- he's not an elitist. He's worked hard -- wasn't handed a boat load of money from daddy.
But a rich liberal to you is some sign of socialism a rich Republican --oh they work hard for what what they have inherited.
Hypocrites, idiot...whatever.
Worked hard? He is a 47 year lieing politician who has been using people and lining his pockets while selling out America. He's a hustler and a carpet bagger. As far as Trump getting a helping hand from his father, what the hell is wrong with that? You'd do the same with your child. It isn't like his father was royalty or that his father inherited a forturne givin him by millions of subjects. His father earned his wealth the hardway....working for it, unlike a career politician who is a notorious liar. Eventually the busisness was heritited by a capable son, whether you like it or not.
How is it "laughable"? Biden is greedy. He had his grubby paws in every one of Hunter's shady deals. As a result, when it comes to China, Biden is compromised.
Hunter was the bagman. These were not Hunter deals but Joe Biden deals, laundered through his son. China Joe is compromised through multible nations.
lol Trump profited handsomely off the presidency he didn't need the salary.
Donating his salary (is there any proof he actually did?) Was just another PR stunt. Basically a metaphor for his entire Presidency. His entire existence.
You act as if no DEM ever got "the millions paid to transport" them and their families. obama went to Hawaii SEVERAL times. Sometimes he and his family took DIFFERENT planes. Didn't even has his do flown out 1 time by itself?
What do you think it cost to send the SS out to Hawaii and stay there for WEEKS before the obama's got there?
The clinton's charged the SS "rent" to have guard shack on their property
pelosi is a MULTI-millionaire, yet flew GOV'T MILITARY planes back and forth to Ca, almost every weekend. What to you think THAT cost? Now that harris will be in control she will fly them AGAIN.
ALSO, Trump offered to USE HIS OWN PLANE and the SS said he could NOT.
Just a head's up, after 9-11 certain government employees were required to fly in government planes. Pelosi did exactly what her predecessors did. She got into hot water when she wanted a non stop flight. Flying to Ohio non stop and flying to Ca.non stop required a different kinda plane.
If you think a limit should be placed on whether a POTUS can go home for vacation or the amount spent by the secret service for their expenses, write your congressman.
Paying rent for a guard shack is IMO, excessive. But so is telling the secret service the are not allowed to pee in one of you 6 bathrooms. That's what Ivanka did. It is costing the taxpayer $3000 a month for the secret service to rent a nearby basement apartment. The lease is up next September.
"by triple charging the Secret Service to stay at Trump Tower in Mar-a-Lago." Prove it!
Let me replace “triple” with shafted, overcharged, took advantage, plenty of words to describe this kind of geed. do I need the exact figure to remind you of common knowledge? Trump made huge money over charging our government.
When you pay attention you realize Trump is a billionaire who dodged taxes for years, and also used the government to increase his wealth while in office giving up the presidential salary is nothing and who cares about his empty gesture.
