On Fox and Friends on Thursday, President Trump was on air by phone for an extended interview covering several topics, which included at one point, naturally, his own wealth. Answering Brian Kilmeade about whether being President is worth the trouble, Trump said the job has probably cost him billions of dollars. Kilmeade prefaced his question with a litany of the presidents woes, including the recent New York Times report on his taxes his friends and associates facing jail, and so on.
Mr. President, big picture question, when you look at the scrutiny on your personal finances, and the taxes go back to your dad, when you see your lawyer that has to cut deals and the National Enquirer buddy of yours has to cut deals, CFO of your company has got immunity, and you see pressure of family is under and 50% of the country doesnt like you, and 50% will do anything for you, said Kilmeadem, do you ever say why do I need this, why did I do this?
Trump responded by stating a monetary cost, and saying that the monetary cost was worth it due to how great he is. Well it certainly you know, Ill tell you what. Ill bet you it cost me you know, I see these people say Trump gets rich being president, Ill bet you Ive lost billions of dollars. It cost me billions, I said to one of my friends, a very wealthy friend, I bet it cost me 2 or $3 billion, it is worth every penny of it, said Trump. I dont need the money, and it is worth every penny because Im doing so much for the country. I mean what Ive done in terms of costs, what Ive done in terms of the military. Were rebuilding the military, very shortly were gonna have the strongest military weve ever had.
Yes its nasty, its vicious, its incredible, the false reporting is so incredible, but honestly Im doing a great job, he said.
Trump explained to his favorite hosts that the proof of his great job is in the number of people who attend his rallies.

(22,977 posts)Trumpanzees (Ruusians) have had a meme floating on Farcebook for some time comparing how much the Clintons "made" off the WH while showing what Hair Furor has lost, in service to HIS country.
Would he please declare that eating your own shit is actually a healthy alternative just so his believers never miss a meal?
