President Donald Trump took the truth on Wednesday 6 August to say that he was the only American president – a cover from George Washington – to donate his presidential salary and at the same time offering recent reconstruction in the White House.
“I’m proud to be the only president (with a possible exception of late, big George Washington) to give my salary to,” Trump wrote. “My first” paycheck “went to the historic Association of the White House because we are doing much needed reconstruction of the beautiful people of the people.” ”
Trump stressed that in the White House the main improvements and beautification of efforts are underway and calls them “great improvements … at levels that were not seen from the original creation”.
While several presidents, including John F. Kennedy and Herbert Hoover, also donated their salaries, Trump continues to frame his contributions as unique in modern presidential history.
The Historical Association of the White House, which received Trump’s first paycheck, is a non -profit organization that helps to finance efforts to protect and restore in a powerful residence.
