Being a numbers guy and a citizen I find those figures offensive!!!

Having said that, would it be cheaper for the nation to bribe him out of office?

It wouldn't hurt to try...and compare the numbers. I'd gladly allot my taxes to go toward 'buying him out' for the rest of this term and for the next one if he would agree to leave right now and never run again for any political office in the US.

Can't bribe a narcissist . . .
