Trump’s morning meltdown includes false claims about presidential salary
‘THE DEMOCRATS ARE CORRUPT AND EVIL, and I am the exact opposite,’ the president wrote on Truth Social
President Donald Trump sought to paint Democrats as the party of corruption, while boasting that he pays his taxes and refuses a White House salary.
He made the comments in Truth Social posts early Thursday morning, less than two weeks after Democrats reclaimed control of the House and Senate in the midterm elections — with corruption playing a major factor for voters.
Exit polls indicated the vast majority of voters believe Democrats would handle the issue better than Republicans. When the new Congress is seated in January, Democrats have vowed to investigate accusations of corruption within the Trump administration.
“The Democrat Party, lead by one of the most Corrupt and anti-American groups of political leaders and hacks in the history of our Country, and even the World, is doing everything in their power to get away from MASSIVE BLUE STATE CORRUPTION by saying, over and over again, that the Trump Administration is corrupt,” the president wrote at 5:50 am.
“I, perhaps foolishly because the Fake News refuses to write about it, including in my First Term, don’t even take a Salary, worth Millions of Dollars,” he added. “I am the only President to have done so! In any event, THE DEMOCRATS ARE CORRUPT AND EVIL, and I am the exact opposite!”
