Life is full of choices, they chose....................
No, he didn’t but that’s OK because SHUT UP
-—Epluribusunum2, I think LOL
Another brilliant move by someone who feels more strongly about politics than the cause he supposedly cares about.
For Trump it's all about the campaign and not the vets so where are they any different than he is? The whole reason for his Trumpathon and the donations is to score political capital. It's not even his money; it was donated by others. So why is he trying to use it and them to further his candidacy?
Keith Howard is a dumb $hit who cares more about politics than charity!
When you run a charity organization for America’s heroes, you take the money...
Disgusting that some people are so infantile and bigoted politically they would rather use Vets as a political prop then accept the money and do good for them instead.
Trump should just give the money as requested now.
Did you donate to the Trump vet fund?
So's Trump for that matter.
Death before dishonor.
“Plus, Howard believed appearing at a political rally could jeopardize his group’s nonprofit status”
On a similar note, wasn’t Barry’s appearance at the mosque a political speech?
the vets should feel screwed
the organization could have come back to Team Trump and taken the money the day after the primary
This retired Army officer believes the reasons for not appearing at the rally are valid. If Trump really wanted to help he could have made it an anonymous donation or come to their office for a quiet presentation.

And this retired Air Force Senior NCO has no problem with what Trump did.
Trump has been honoring Veterans at every campaign stop and rallies.
What other candidate is doing this......or even thought about doing this before????
And yet this man’s ‘attitude’ in rejecting the money will prevent some Vets getting much needed help!
No, what disgusting is Trump using vets as props for a rally.
IIRC, Trump donated 1 million dollars himself...
Plus he was worried about losing tax exempt status.
Did I donate to the Trump fund? Yes, I did. Every month, I give a small donation to a worthwhile cause. FWIW, four times a year it’s FR. I’m DISGUSTED that someone who pretends to put the needs of Veterans first would refuse money for them.
Whats disgusting is how quickly Cruzbots will regurgitate anything negative about Trump regardless of source.
