Don’t attack, but why did he only donate 60k in the five years prior to running?

Perhaps he made personal donations that he did not want reported.

Since he’s likely to be the nominee, I would be GLAD, not sad, to be shown that he was generous with troops previously

I never judge people on how much they give to charity. That's their own business.

Also, when people brag about how much they give to charity - I am not impressed and I get suspicious about their true motives.

$60,000 to this small organization beats Hillary donation of used underwear to some charity, by a mile.

Look at his history of helping INDIVIDUALS which is only becoming known since he is now runnning. People he has helped have come forward to tell of his help. It did not come from Donald’s mouth, but from theirs. His helping hand goes back decades and to me it shows the good heart of the man. I have no doubt that there are numerous stories we will never know about.
I knew someone a bit like Donald who made numerous gifts, all anonymously, who was considered a tightwad because nobody knew his true self. He didn’t care for them to know. He was a billionaire and people were nagging him incessantly for money for everything under the sun. He developed a hard outward persona somewhat as a protection, when in fact, he was very generous.

I wouldn’t worry about the amount. He is a giver. That is enough for me.

Anyone who knows him knows he has always loved the troops.
