PISCATAWAY-- Rutgers basketball fans have decades of experience dealing with disappointment in the regular season, but a preseason gut-punch is something new. Coming off a hopeful season that injected some life into a dormant program, Rutgers put together possibly the easiest non-conference schedule in the country.
President Trump, who promised to work for free, donated his salary for the first quarter of the year on Monday to the National Park Service, which, like other government agencies, faces major cuts in the presidentâs first budget proposal.
He also has a long history of making public displays of donating said profits, though the evidence of his professed charity has never been as obvious. So it came as no surprise when Trump declared that he would refuse his $400,000 yearly salary as president. (Upon learning that he was constitutionally required to accept the money, he amended his statement, saying via a spokeswoman that he would accept $1 and either give the rest back to the U.S. Treasury or donate it to charity.)
