And he's PERSONALLY paying for them. True patriot!

"We're putting up a beautiful, almost 100 foot tall American flag. On this side and another one on the other side."

"They've needed flagpoles for 200 years... paid for by Trump."

The OP was asking about his salary being donated. Trump just donated flags. Along with his salary. He released 6yrs of taxes.

Salary
When Trump announced his decision to forgo a salary, critics expressed doubt because presidents are required to be compensated for their work. To get around this, Trump takes $1 each year from his paychecks.

According to news coverage and White House news releases, Trump has written checks equal to a quarter of his $400,000 annual salary every quarter to various government agencies:

So. Bam.

The donated flags are nice and all. The article is from 2022. Doesn't account for where the final 2 checks went of his term.

And it doesn't address what he is or isn't doing today. You're digging, though. And helping us get to the details. Those just aren't the right details

The link says he’s not taking a salary.

OOOF

Why would he care about taking a presidential salary when he's grifting millions from taxpayers every weekend to go cheat at golf?

Bingo. There's a pile of self-enriching grift here

Pretty sure all presidents have their expenses covered as part of the job. How many times was it that Biden fired up an expensive aircraft to go lie catatonic on Rehoboth Beach again? I’m assuming you guys are outraged about that also, but I’ve been unable to find the thread condemning him.

[HDGristle]

But they haven't really been paying those expenses or the protectional detail expenses to their own businesses, like this.

Which helps him not take a salary.

Speaking of which do you know where those last 2 checks went? Or whether he's shared the taxes he promises to share?

[Jacuzzme]

100% hypocrisy, as expected.

[HDGristle]

I agree, Trump claimed transparency and generosity, but is lining his pockets with federal $'s while pretending he's being charitable.

Pure hypocrisy
