How much is the president paid?

The U.S. president hasn't been given a raise in more than 20 years.

That means Kamala Harris or Donald Trump will earn the same salary as their predecessor: $400,000 a year, as specified in Title 3 of the U.S. Code, paid monthly. The president also gets an additional $50,000 for expenses (non-taxable), a $100,000 travel account and a $19,000 entertainment budget. 

Of course, the nation's commander in chief is also entitled to other benefits, not least of which is a paid-for mansion known as the White House, as a residence.
