Mh, you should be a little more clear in your initial post, then- by citing the fact that he doesn't take Presidential salary as being something even remotely meaningful in the overall context of "Does Trump waste taxpayer dollars or not", you ended up spreading a piece of shitty, populist propaganda. I accept that you didn't mean it that way, though, just try to be more careful with your tone in future I guess.
Also not gonna lie, the "pawn of the GOP" thing was definitely inspired by your own dramatic style of thinking/communicating! It doesn't suit me so much though, yeah. At least we can talk about this more reasonably though.
