   It is my bias for truth and facts that is showing.   
      
    GD> Don't take my word for it, just look at the facts.

    GD> continuously rip off the United States of America, with respect to

   I do not know all the facts on China, it is complex.   
      
    GD> Who else fixed the tax code so that WE as Americans keep to keep   
    GD> more of our hard earned money.    
      
   Not that much more.  He fixed the tax code so that his billionaire   
   buddies got to keep a *LOT* more of their earnings.   
      
    GD> Name me another President where the stock market has soared breaking   
    GD> its own record multiple times within 4 year term.    
      
   The stock market rose at a higher average rate under Obama than under   
   Trump.  Obama inherited a crash because of Bush policies that drove the   
   stock market down to about 6600.  When he turned over the Presidency to   
   Trump it had risen steadily to 19800, an increase by a factor of 2.99   
   over a period of about 95 months, which equates to 1.16% per month   
   compounded monthly.  Last stock market price is 29,999 -- an increase by a   
   factor of 1.51 over a period of just under 48 months, which equates to   
   0.8% per month compounded monthly.  In other words Trump inherited a   
   strong market and did not get it to increase at the same rate as it had   
   done under Obama.  All of this discussion ignores the fact that only the   
   more affluent part of the population has any stake in the stock market.   
      
    GD> Can you recall a previous President of the U.S. that has done all of   
    GD> the above and has not collected a salary.    
      
   It is true that Trump says he has donated his salary.  It is also true   
   that previous statements of his donations to charity have been false.   
   It is also true that he has earned far more than his salary by his   
   charges to the federal government for using his various private   
   facilities.  It is also true that his donations for "help overturn the   
   election fund" have put more than 100 million into funds that he can use   
   for what ever he pleases.  I.e. giving up $400,000 yearly salary pales   
   in comparison to the money he has raked in via other means based on his   
   office.   
      
    GD> Your response to should prove to be interesting.   
      
   I hope it was interesting and enlightening for you.
