Giving as a tax dodge?
Getting other people to give to your own foundation can be.
For it to be a tax dodge or scheme, he would have to be contributing to the foundation. Prior to this week, he had not contributed any money to his own charitable foundation since he gave $33,000 in 2008. I do not believe it is a tax dodge or a scheme to allow him to contribute more to non-veteran charities.
I think he is just taking your money, deciding to whom it will go, and then taking credit for helping veterans.
