Show me the check wasn't he all ready donating his Check to his Charity foundation

Thank you president dumpf!

$100,000

😂😂😂😂

Trump is a joke at this point... 8 more months of his crap... .

You know, this is a waste. What about the 30 THOUSAND Americans who'll die from the annual influenza. That's about 20,000 more than who'll simply contract COVID-19.!

You worry about his golf expenses, did u remember that obama did that too no to mention that he took vacations, but since u like obama no one cares. See how rule changes. Even clinton, bush. Nothing is free. Difference is obama took his salary and clinton too.

$130,000 for a porn star though.

He should donate the 25 million it cost him to golf in the 4th quarter.

ooh big spender. Meanwhile others are donating millions.

Yea, u won't hear that on Demo-commie news CNN or MSNBC

But wait. Wasn't he already donating his entire salary since Day 1 of taking office? 🤔

Didn't he pay more to silence the porn star he commit adultery with?

Big deal , what about the trump charity donations.....oh I forgot he already used them for his own personal use .. what a man!!!

It's ok he will make that money up GOLFING

Big deal. He is stealing many times that from us going to his properties to play golf

Please have realDonaldTrump pay for all of golfing trips to FL and take that off of the American taxpayers

That’s chump change

Gimmick

He can keep his f’ing salary but we want the 10’s of millions he spent on golf trips paid back

Name one other politician doing the same...Bernie? Warren? Pelosi? Schumer? Nope. Name one, I’ll wait....

Ha peanuts

You blow more than $100k of tax $$$ on one golf trip to Mar-a-lago to golf!! “If I’m ever President I won’t have time to golf” 🤣🤣🤣 yeah ok 👍🏼

People are so mental that they actually find problems with donating to charity. Idiots

In a move commensurate with that , I'll be donating 10 cents.

He's donating less than what he's made because he's been fleecing America for millions!

QUIT_GOLFING realDonaldTrump That would REALLY HELP pay for coronavirus assistance and research.

Saint Dumbo!

Trump budget screwed early warning planning and research that could have given us a 6month to year head start, now he wants you to beleive he cares after he gambled with our lives and lost the bet.

So what ? He's a twit

Why does this matter? We’re still paying him one way or the other.

Why doesn't the United States provide free testing and treatment for patients with coronavirus?

It’s March 3rd. He has been fundraising, travelling, speaking, eating, using jet, one house , too, for free. Tpdthomasdubrick

That will buy a handful of test kits. More than enough!!

Wow really big of him. How about stopping the junkets to maralago. That will leave us considerably more of our tax dollars for really important things than soothing trumps ego.

Trump has spent 334 years of Presidential salary on taxpayer funded golf. Trump is America’s 10th highest paid athlete.

What Democrats do you know Donate is pay check. No one. Not one. Only Donald Trump donated his total pay check

Typical Trump. When he has no idea what to do, he just throws money at it and thinks it will make things better. Pathetic

But in his view, it would be $100,000 into a hoax because he doesn't need that money...

Looks like the game called quarters..He wants to sleep in the White House quarters so he has to register himself..he calls it a quarterly donation but it looks like bribery..a squatter (quarters anagram) without any rights to stay there.. he gets an appointee to accept a bribe

Company check, tax write off ?

Wow. What a guy...

Easy to do when you got millions upon millions being funneled into your own businesses by the taxpayers

CorruptTrump

LOL- one trip to Maralago is millions of dollars in his pocket.

he shouldn’t of grifted USA with his golf and staying at his resorts. Stripped agencies of funding and hired lobbyists. 100k is a drop in the bucket. Good for him, but he screwed this up from the get go. He’s not prepared for this moment. He’s just desperate to control narrative.

Btw no such thing as money its all in your mind!

Cup of coffee and a bagel for him...

Why are you even posting this.

God Bless President Trump, the peoples President!

I WISH I COULD DONATE $100K TO FIGHT BEER VIRUS BUT I DON'T EVEN HAVE $100 or a BANK ACCOUNT! Ah gee, thanks Trump, I knew you had a heart!

LMFAO. Tell that to all those dead Americans that could have been saved. ImpeachedAndNotExoneratedForever

How thoughtful after the taxpayers have paid out $140 million for his golf vacations, most of which has gone into his business. But I’m sure his cult will eat this up.

I think he needs to concentrate on his spray tan, don’t you? 🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

How about he just quit golfing?

How much did he waste coming to NC last night?

Our hero 🙄

How about he donates all the fees paid by the taxpayer every time he visits one of his golf courses. whoopdygodamndydoo

Can we now see Trump's tax returns?

😂😂🤣🤣😂🤣 oh man. How about the millions of tax payer dollars he’s used and is using to play golf, on his own properties? Stop with this rubbish show already!!!

Yeah but how much has he stolen from us

I wish he'd donate it (and a lot more) to his golfing expenses.

Less than the check he wrote to Stormy

I thought he didn't get a salary

I’m amazed CNBC gave him credit.

What a joke

I don’t believe that for one minute.

That should do the trick!

Big deal! How much taxpayer's money do we spend for his golf trips? We are looking for preparedness such as the cancelled FREE tests, supplies, and manpower at hospitals and community!

BFD he’s spent more taxpayer money than that on traveling for pleasure and playing golf...

Is he willing to donate the costs charged at his hotels for his Secret Service teams to watch him play golf poorly?

Said who?

What more can you ask for

Hmmm - didn’t Humpty-Trumpty say (during his ‘16 campaign) that if elected, he wouldn’t take a salary?

How about donating all your millions of golf money you have forced 🇺🇸 to pay to your resorts? Your salary is nothing!

Didn’t he said he is filthy rich and has billions..., so only $100k? If ure going to do it, at least make it big, otherwise save it!

Why would you make the check out to the Office of the Assistant Secretary of Health? Wouldn't you make it out directly to Department of Health? Or is this check made out to an entity that doesn't exist and can never be cashed; and it is once again Trump thinking we won't notice?

Trump has spent 278.5 years of presidential salary funded by taxpayers on golf outings.

The cost of one hour on Air Force One taking Trump to Mar-a-Lago. Big deal!

How about his golf and paying for his sons security?

Why do they have to announce it, just do it and shut up! Oh I know why....my bad

$100,000. That will buy about ten boxes of face masks on Amazon at the rate they are going up in price.

Lol. That’ll get it done.

No mention of the fact it’s a fraction of what he’s making out of this let alone Kushner

What about the millions hes making off our tax dollars?

Tell Trump to leave w money

This is how realDonaldTrump leads a nation?

Nice tax write off

He made more than that staying at Mar A Lago for one night. I don’t jest. We pay him to stay at his own country club. Munchkin/Mnuchin is fighting to protect documentation of the amount the Secret Service has spent at Trump properties. I know the amount, a small fucking fortune.

Grifter in Chief

It's just too little, too late... Thank you, JoJo for these wise words

I don't give a **** what either of them say.

Hahahahah not enough!!

That is less than a spanking of a donation

Stop playing golf on the taxpayers dime.

Do you really think this is true ?

How much money has he made off the Anerican people. This is an attempt to spin he is not incompetent

But I thought he said it was all a hoax?

Yawn.

Love to see this!

Hahaha...wait...hahaha

Donald Trump makes $420 million per year. His $100K donation is the equivalent of a person making $50K per year donating $10. Thanks for the generosity.

I'd rather you cover your own golfing expenses. Keep the salary.

Yes that’s peanuts in front and f his S&P500 longs & his blns in the bank

While spending $3 million on rallies, golfing, his properties per month if not higher.

You can’t buy a box of face masks on Amazon for that much money right now.

Hahaha

Bill Gates (a billionaire in real life) donated $100mio

He will not sorry he lies remember the Veteran charity donations

PressSec she’s a complete waste of taxpayers money.

😂😂😂

Yet making millions off his trips to his golf course. Nice try Don the Con!

$100k from a billionaire. Is this a joke?

Really. What the F is that going to do. What a joke. realDonaldTrump

Okidoki ...let me see how I can buy the election ...

3 national news outlets reporting on this pay that back by itself. What a joke! TRUMP is moving a couple of billions with his SAUDI friends!!

That is equivalent to LESS THAN 33 tests 😂. Just did it for another headline

Ah. So this will cover all those uninsured people he said he'd 'look into' paying for? At 4000 per test and hospital stay, that will help ... A few.

Trump's true paycheck comes from Putin and friends.

Bill Gates donated 100 million

Lol sure he is

We don’t care TrumpVirusCoverup

QTRResearch USA 1, Coronavirus 0

no other Presidend has ruled over such a crisis and won out like we have - America will take this money and turn it into bullion's of dollar's for other nation's at our expense - lazy dem's won't mention that though

Weren't he not taking a salary anyway? You know, cos he's super rich?

Just keep your salary...use it to pay for your own damn golf outings.

So

Yea but he has spent 150,000,000 playing golf Such PR crap

China winning
