Shame on them.
Sorry but this is just idiotic. Why turn down the cash? Use it for the friggin’ Vets needs!!
The man has already helped several veterans. More than probably those who are trashing him on this thread. The man has nothing to prove. He doesn't deserve to be condemned for refusing a particular donation. He doesn't need to dress up as a french poodle and jump through hoops at a circus. The man has already helped folks and doesn't deserve the trashing he is getting.
Maybe someone should tell Trump he's going to destroy the groups he's trying to help by running it through his campaign.....so we can see if he cares.
I am sure there are other vet organizations that would welcome the contributions. This group is more interested in pushing a political agenda than in helping vets.
Is Trump violating campaign finance laws here if he is using the gift of the money as a public part of his campaign. Those funds were raised outside of the normal campaign finance laws. So, if they are now distributed as part of a campaign rally does that have legal implications.
The guy is a bit of a nut case.
After months of preparation, Keith Howard’s life in a tiny home has begun.
Once a homeless Army veteran, Howard will spend the next nine months living inside a 160-square-foot cargo trailer nestled in peaceful woods off Harriman Hill Road in Raymond.
It doesn’t have all the comforts of home, but it has all he needs to survive.
The tiny home is part of an experiment Howard created through his work as executive director of Liberty House, a transitional house for homeless veterans in Manchester.

Way to go ************. You intended to harm Donald. But what you ended up doing was take down what could be an Honorable Charity. Real nice.
The Canadian attempted usurper of the Constitution is going nowhere. Nobody likes him. Nobody trusts him because he is sneaky and slimy. He dangled $1-million dollar contribution in front of the Vets and never intended to give it. The money is still in his campaigns pocket. How disgusting. What a poser.
America can be proud again with President Trump. He follows through for the Vets. Unlike poser Cruz.
for the ignorant among you who think the Vets should allow themselves to be used as political pawns.... The Vets have honor.
Trump is a sleaze.
You think our Vets should sell their souls for money?
They would be insulted by your attitude.

If you wish to be treated like a rational adult, try acting like one.
Try making a case for your candiate for a change instead of racing around desperate for the next infantile screed you can post at every candidate who is not your chosen one.
Update - rump has been made to back off - it’s money others donated for VETS in good faith - not to used for a campaign stunt -
Hoorah

I find it interesting that this Howard fellow would go running to tell his story to the Daily Beast, a well known left wing media outlet instead of trying to negotiate an alternative means for his organization to receive the donation.
