Under US law, presidents are required to pay a fixed amount of salary while in office. Article 3 of the US Code states that a president will receive an annual salary of $400,000. Apart from this, a president gets $50,000 per year as incidental expenses, $100,000 for travel and $19,000 per year as entertainment allowance. Even after leaving office, US presidents receive a fixed salary from government funds.


Certain benefits like round-the-clock security, health insurance also continue. However, no money is allocated separately for the decoration of the President and his family. If a designer wants to donate clothing, there is usually no rule to accept it. Even if the President accepts the gift, it must be deposited in the National Archives after wearing it once.

According to the rules, as the new occupant of the White House, Donald Trump will receive $100,000 to redecorate the house. However, it is known that former US President Barack Obama did not take this money from government funds. He renovated the White House from his own funds. He spent about 1.5 million dollars. On the other hand, President Donald Trump spent about 1.75 million dollars on the decoration of the White House, buying furniture, etc.
