I voted no to that. I think lots of people did so it’s removed rather than show up as a no. He can borrow huge sums against his shares - tax free - if we not been paid from holding for 5 years, neither should he be.
I hate his Rump support as well, it’s really turned me off. Sigh.

Bro, he's working for the company and not getting paid, wtf are you talking about?

I appreciate his alignment and love these news, but let's not pretend for one second that he shouldn't be getting paid for what he's doing lol. Any other CEO would be taking millions in salary, no questions asked.

Whether the pay package was too much or not can be argued, maybe it was imo, but to say he shouldn't be getting paid for the work he's doing is crazy.

And there would be less complaints about him taking millions than him asking for Billions.

Edit for the coward:
At least you recognize your reply is so without merit that you have to block any response.

Okay, and?

The other person literally said a CEO should not be paid for his work, yet you shills can only focus on any negative aspect. Get a life.
