The President will not accept that salary raise!

The 2024 Budget Proposal, prepared by the Presidency of Strategy and Budget, has been submitted to the Speaker of the Grand National Assembly.

Those with ill intent looked first at the raise to be given to President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan's salary... It is projected to be increased by 81.63 percent compared to the beginning of last year, bringing it to 183 thousand liras...

I absolutely do not believe it!

At a time when the government is projecting a 30-40 percent raise for retirees, civil servants, widows, and orphans...

Especially when not even a bonus can be given to working retirees on the grounds that there is no money...

While the salaries of millions of retirees are kept below the hunger threshold to save the country's economy...

While university students who are starving are committing suicide...

While the number of citizens living on the streets is increasing due to rents that have tripled or quadrupled...

Our President, who burns with the pangs of conscience for all of this, who cannot sleep at night, who beats his chest saying, "Oh my poor people, alas my poor people"...

Whose food gets stuck in his throat...

Who distributes bundles of cash, toys, and tea everywhere he goes to fight poverty...

The magnanimous...

The compassionate...

Our understanding and most esteemed President will never, ever accept this salary raise intended for him...

This is the work of FETÖ members...

Or the Ergenekonists...

To put our President in a difficult position and shake his reputation in the eyes of the public...

Certainly without his knowledge...

They must have written such a raise rate into the budget bill...

*

Besides, does our most esteemed President even need such a raise?

He eats his meals in his palaces or at invitation tables...

His planes and cars are free...

Thank God, he doesn't even have a child in school!

As for his "gang of five" teammates... They earn well!

Why would he accept 81.63 percent?

No, no, I don't believe it... It is definitely the work of ill-intentioned bureaucrats who want to put him in a difficult position...

You will see; while the bill is being discussed in Parliament, the "magnanimous majesty" will send word and reject the salary increase!

He will push the proposed figure and rate away with the back of his hand...

He will say, "I cannot enjoy the pleasures of such a high salary while my people are writhing in poverty."

PALACE, MY LIFE IS SACRIFICED FOR YOU!

Let's come to the Presidential Budget, which was 6.6 billion TL in 2023... That is, the Palace!

It has been increased to 12 billion 283 million 843 thousand TL for the coming year...

Because personnel expenses will increase by 136 percent compared to 2023...

Look, look, look...

How hard our palace residents are working...

Salary expenses are increasing; this means that...

The chief advisors, assistant chief advisors, assistants to assistants, presidents, vice presidents, assistants to vice presidents, secretaries, chiefs, civil servants who work selflessly for their country...

In other words...

The number of chief astrologers, chief physicians, mayors, mint masters, head of doorkeepers, chief tasters, gardeners, palace artists, chief sergeants, chief falconers, chief hawk trainers, special attendants, halberdiers, messengers, drummers, water carriers, tailors will increase...

It's not over:

The number of chief chamberlains... armor bearers, robe bearers (today's chief advisors responsible for clothing), stirrup holders (chief advisors responsible for shoes), head doorkeepers, imams, and undertakers will increase!

*

Look at the staff, look at the staff...

Is this much money too much for this selfless, loyal, hardworking, merit-based, creative staff?

Now some hypocrites will harp on about this increase in the palace budget and try to wear down our President...

It's a shame, gentlemen, it's a disgrace, it's a sin!

*

Our lives are sacrificed for our "Gel-haired Heroes" who work day and night for this homeland...
