Also agree on the Dictator part of your post.

Trump gets paid in proportion with his job performance which is ZERO.
Really Trump has opted not get get paid and gives the money back to the Treasury.
But the emoluments more than makes up for his sacrifice.

I heard that his pay goes to charity.? The treasury is not a charity IMO.

I am not sure anymore. Trump started off by saying he will not accept a salary so figured the money stays with the Treasury. But now it seems he is giving it back to government entities.

For the second quarter in a row, President Donald Trump declined to take a salary and opted instead to gift the quarterly installment to a government entity, this time to the Department of Education.

At a White House press briefing, press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders presented a check for $100,000 to Education Secretary Betsy DeVos.

Yet another good column of Jennifer Rubin's from the Washington Post.

'Trump exemplifies abuse of power'

It has come to this:

A Trump ALLY says of His Orangeness: "He's an asshole, but he's our asshole."

Just what you'd expect--in a Saturday Night Live sketch. But this was said in what passes for real life in the US of A in the dog days of 2017. Satire is in huge trouble.

Now here are two even more incredible things. First, there is no discernible sign that Congressman Duncan Hunter, (R) San Diego area, believed he was dissing Trump with this description. And second, his crowd was fine with it. They ate it up!

I find myself longing for the days when conservatives used to be described as 'having a stick up their butt.' Because when you take it out, they collapse into slime.
