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! See below.
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 $25.1 million. Here are some other key findings:
There are 140 fewer employees on White House staff under Trump than under Obama at this point in their respective presidencies.
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)
However, it's what the report said Trump did with this salary that has everyone talking.
Instead of taking his salary, Trump donated all $400,000 to the Department of the Interior where it will be used for construction and repair needs at military cemeteries! AMAZING! 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? That's right, they don't cover anything decent that the President does..
BUT WE WILL!
PLEASE, PASS THIS MESSAGE ON TO ALL YOUR EMAIL PALS AND OTHERS!
TOGETHER, WE'LL GET THE MESSAGE OUT
I LOVE my President!
MAGA.....KAG!!!!
btt
$35.8 million for 377 employees?
That is nearly $93,000 per employee. Not bad, considering Obama (actually the US taxpayer) was paying his mother in law $300,000 a year to watch his kids.
Yes, amazing!
AND-—Obama set up his MIl with a $160,000 a year PENSION for watching her own grandchildren.
-— years of luxury living-—no work, and get a pension of $160,000.
Ain’t life grand for the Grifters???
I figured obama was skimming the money all those years.
Maybe Robert Mueller can investigate.
Isn’t this old?????
“”Isn’t this old?????””
Used to be easy to search out apples for apples and oranges for oranges on this topic but everything I find is comparing different years in office - 1st year of obozo vs Trump first year etc., same for first ladies. All I can find on WH salaries is from 2017. It used to be easy to find them on the WH website but they’ve apparently been moved. The only thing that is staying in line with the post is the 377 WH employees - everything else is all over the map. Just some examples:

Good project for leisure time... I believe I printed out WH salaries for obozo’s last year in office and kept it just for this comparison - now all I have to do is find it...
You realize you should click on emails like this, right?
And who would send you such a email?
“”Claims that the Trump White House had 110 fewer employees than the Obama White House at the six-month mark are true. But the claims that Trump spent $5 million less on payroll is somewhat misleading because its compares Trump’s first year in office (2017) to Obama’s last year (2016).””

It seems I’m the only one interested in this thread so I will go to my kitchen and fix dinner..at least I don’t have to get frustrated over whatever news is lurking out there to make me angry!
