How Out of Touch is Trump? (Joint Chiefs of Staff Salary Edition)


This is really pretty amazing but understandable after you think about it.

The Washington Post reports:

Chief of Staff John F. Kelly has told others about watching television with Trump and asking the president how much the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff earns.
Trump guessed $5 million, according to people who were told the story by Kelly, startling the chief of staff. Kelly responded that he made less than $200,000. The president suggested he get a large raise and noted the number of stars on his uniform.
