You can bet that Trump has his money in as many tax shelters as he and his accountants can find. If he is helping pay my retirement, its not because he wants to. But that goes for anyone with any sense, dont pay more taxes than required.

Isn’t that the point? Take the money and do good things with it.

You know darn well that the leader of this charity publicly accepts money from people. He doesn’t like Trump, so he is just busting his chops, because he thinks he can. There is no moral principle here, just politics.

Grade-A douche, who cares more about HIS politics than the well-being vets he is supposed to be helping.

If it’s his policy to only accept anonymous donations, then fine, but what is the chance of that being the case?

This is an interesting article, with more companies that wish to use “vets as props”:

http://www.mccnh.edu/news/item/1892-students-aim-for-holiday-finish-to-vets-home-project

“The students raised $20,000 to fund the project, receiving donations from individuals and businesses including Bruce Merges Control Technologies Inc. of Manchester, Damon Insulation of Bow, Design Day Mechanicals of New Ipswich, F.W. Webb of Manchester, Granite State Automation of Manchester, Granite State Plumbing & Heating LLC of Weare, Home Depot, Louis P. Cote Inc. of Goffstown, Lowes of Bedford and Pensotti Boilers of Brewer, Maine.

Food donations were provided by Hannaford’s Bicentennial Drive store in Hooksett, KC’s Rib Shack of Manchester, Nadeau’s Subs of Manchester, the Puritan Backroom of Manchester, Shorty’s Mexican Roadhouse of Hooksett and the Sal’s Pizza on South Willow Street in Manchester.

MCC has partnered with Liberty House since 2012, recently winning the President’s Community Partner Award from Campus Compact for NH.”

All these companies should be excoriated for refusing to make “anonymous donations” and cynically using vets for “tax deductions”.

That’s how you like it, right?
