President Donald Trump will be donating his first quarter's salary to the National Park Service, according to White House Spokesman Sean Spicer. The announcement was made during Monday's White House press briefing.

In total, the president will be donating $78.333.32 to the park service. Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke, who was at the briefing to accept the check, has said the money will go to improve maintenance of the nation's battlefields.

Good for Trump.

+1 in his column.
How to lose credibility while posting:
1. Trump is never wrong.
2. Default to the most puerile emoticon you can find. This is especially useful when you can't win an argument on merits.
3. Be falsely ingratiating, completely but politely dismissive without talking to the points, and bring up Hillary whenever the conversation is really about conservatism.
4. When all else fails, remember rule #1 and #2. Emoticons are like the poor man's tweet!

Giving it back to the government.  Oh well...at least he did what he said.

It's better than giving it to Ivanka or any of his other offspring and claiming he's giving it away.

I'm actually a fan of the National Parks, so if his salary goes there, I have no problem with it.
Character still matters.  It always matters.

I wear a mask as an exercise in liberty and love for others.  To see it as an infringement of liberty is to entirely miss the point.  Be kind.

Use the time God is giving us to seek His will and feel His presence.

Don't those secret service agents get paid regardless of where they are?

Credit to him for doing it - and I like the little flourish of doing it quarterly (I assume next quarter it'll go to another place/group?).

He charges the government rent for his and his families protection detail. I'm not talking about their salary.

Here the President is doing what he said he would do and you're scraping the bottom of garbage pails to spew hate at him.  What is wrong with you @geronl ?

Do his hotels have a problem with vacancy that you're worried about it?

I'm confused.  The presidential salary is actually over four times that amount.  What happened to the rest of it?

Yeah....and I applaud him for doing so.  But.... there is a lot more to the "salary" than just that amount, quarterly or no quarterly. 

It's still a "first" though....one that the greedy Obamas would never have wanted to get next to....lol.

The President's salary is the amount the US Government pays him for the position of President of the United States. 

Please, @XenaLee , stop crawling through mud to try and spew the President with BS on this.  He has done what he said he would do ... and has donated the salary paid to him as President of the United States to a worthy organization.

Say, "well done" and move on.

In light of the fact that her beloved donated it to the National Parks, wouldn't "take a hike" be a more appropriate response?  :dx1:
