All of Washington's dentures caused him pain and produced facial disfigurement, described by George Washington Parke Custis as "a marked change...in the appearance...more especially in the projection of the under lip." This physical change can be viewed in the well-known portraits painted by Gilbert Stuart in 1796. Washington complained that even the expertly constructed dentures made by Greenwood "are both uneasy in the mouth and bulge my lips out" and that the teeth "have, by degrees, worked loose."
Not surprisingly, Washington found his ivory and metal contraptions difficult to use while eating or speaking. The ivory dentures also tended to stain easily, requiring extensive maintenance such as cleaning with wax and "some chalk and a Pine or Ceder stick" and "soake[ing]...in Broath."

Weird isn't it? Even after he set up a "university" for people who admire him it turned out to be scam. Trump supporters increasingly sound like idiots who only support Trump because they've invested in him so much that admitting that he's an idiot is an admission of failure.
They have all the evidence that he's a fraud. They've had it for a while. They're in denial.

Perhaps you can outline the Trump policies that have resulted in these grand savings you're talking about...because I haven't seen those policies yet.
(I'm not saying he can't, over time, do so - but in the short time he's been with us?)

Unlike President Obama, Trump inherits a strong economy, sort of like his wealth.
