White House Salaries

News the main stream media will not tell......this is the difference between in "businessman" and a "politician".....  
   On Friday, the Trump administration released their annual report to Congress on White House Office Personnel. It includes the name, status, salary and position title of all 377 White House employees. 
The report also said that Trump decided not to take a dime of his salary; instead he donated it to an amazing cause! The report also showed that President Trump is far better at saving money than Obama was. The total annual White House salaries under Trump are $35.8 million vs. $60.9 million under Obama, a savings of about $25.1 million.   https://www.forbes.com/sites/adamandrzejewski/2018/06/29/trumps-lean-white-house-2018-payroll-on-track-to-save-taxpayers-22-million/#43b2b28d4e4f 
 Here are some other key findings:1- There are 140 fewer employees on White House staff under Trump than under Obama at this point in their respective presidencies. 2- Thirty-nine fewer staffers are also dedicated to The First Lady of the United States (FLOTUS) Currently, there are only five staffers dedicated to Melania Trump vs. forty-four staffers who served Michelle Obama (FY2009)  https://www.forbes.com/sites/adamandrzejewski/2017/07/02/trumps-leaner-white-house-payroll-projected-to-save-taxpayers-22-million/#2dfb5cce57e6 3- However, it's what the report said Trump did with this salary that has everyone talking. 4- White House press secretary Sarah Sanders: “Today, the President is proud to donate his 2018 first quarter salary to the Department of Veteran Affairs to support their caregiver programs” - May 17, 2018 Instead of taking his salary, Trump donated all to the Department of the Interior where it will be used for construction and repair needs at military cemeteries! It's so great to have a President who loves our brave military men and women so much! Oh, and where's the media coverage of this?
