Should Trump give 20% of his income to charity to show solidarity with those hurt by his trade war?

Trump avoided service in the Vietnam war. Isn't there something he could do to show solidarity with, for example, soybean farmers caught in the crossfire of his trade war? Trump said there might be a "little pain." I guess that means for someone other than him?

Seriously though. Trump only cares about money and power for himself.
