Did you hear the news about Trump stating that he is only going to charge a $1 a year for being President?

I heard that on the radio this morning. Cheers!

    He will make sure the rest of his family get their share. Oh, and he will get money out of his investments in Russia. When is he going to show his tax papers, and his investments?

    And your point is? Nothing you say changes the reality of his election, but hate him all you like.

    I don't think I've ever stated I hate him, or anyone else. I'll leave the hate for others to use.

    Although hate is the message I get from the tone of your posts.

    I can't prevent you from perceiving me like you want to. I can tell you that I dont spend my life's on hating people, not even those who have hurt my trust, or dane harm to me in other ways. Hate is a waste of time. As said, I will leave the hating for others to make use of. Not my thing. Have a lovely day.

    I don't know you and have no axe to grind, so there's no desire involved. I just call it as I see it. You give off a strong vibe of hating Mr. Trump. It comes through loud and clear in your cynical tone. If I'm wrong so be it. Life will go on.

    Perceive as it pleases you. I don't know you, and I won't be sleepless because you feel a certain vibe or not. I've already once wished you a lovely day, means only a bye will be missing. Bye.

    He wasn't required to do so for the election. As an office holder, he'll be subject to financial disclosure requirements.

    We will see. So far he has stated that he won't because he's still under review? Apparently it wasn't interesting for the Trump voters to get an insight on his finances before voting him into the Oval Office. Im curious to know how they'd have reacted if HRC had done the same stunt. Required or not. Someone has held back information and with reasons apparently.

    And yet he still got elected. Shows what a poor campaign Hillary ran.

    She had no luck/skills to convince enough voters to make use of their vote on Election Day. Protesters will have more success with less efforts, just like we saw it with Brexit. Hopefully the real politicians will soon wake up to take measures and present their politics in better ways that at the same time will expose the populists for what they are: a lot of hot air and no real solutions. Enjoy your day. Bye.

    Wow, he's saving the US taxpayers a whopping 1/1,000,000th of the federal budget!

    Or, to put it another way. Imagine you were a small business owner with annual expenditures of $1 million. An employee comes up to you and says he has an idea that will save the company $1. Not $1/hour, or $1/sale. One dollar PER YEAR.

    How much would that excite you?  Yeah, not much.

    It's just meaningless posturing on The Donald's part.
