President Donald Trump has stayed true to his word, given on the 2016 campaign trail, to donate his salary back to the government.

When the former businessman ran for office, he pledged that he would not accept his $400,000-per-year salary.

However, because he is required by law to be paid, the president has been donating his salary each quarter to various government agencies.

For the last two quarters, he has written $100,000 checks to the Department of Health and Human Services to fight the coronavirus outbreak.

In May, White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany announced during a media briefing that Trump would be donating his first quarter 2020 salary “to develop new therapies for treating and preventing COVID-19 so that we can safely reopen.”
