Trumpees do not care about his lies.
Speaking of which —— Guess what is not on the donald’s website. NOTHING ABOUT DEPORTING ANYONE BUT ILLEGALS ANYMORE. LOOKS LIKE HE COPIED CRUZ’S PLATFORM.
Hahahahahahahahahahahha

I agree with that, this is just another smear tactic.

[txnativegop]

but, but, it political season and the only reason for it is to throw mud and stones. LOL

How is that false advertising? I can choose to make my donation or change my mind if I don’t want my $ going thru Trump’s foundation, but I feel more comfortable than having it go thru a donation site (i.e., gofundme) that takes its % off the top. Does anyone, anyone on earth, think that Trump is directing those funds for his own use? Or his foundation’s own use?

I have read today that Trump has donated $57,000 of his $10,000,000,000 to veterans’ causes throughout his 69 years. That’s a whopping .0000057% of his wealth!

World Wrestling Entertainment has donated more money to his foundation that he has.

[chris37]

Doesn’t want to pay their administrative costs and salaries perhaps?

No, no, the billionaire wants to keep all the money for himself and let the vets starve, I’m sure!

I don’t think that Trump would steal it for personal use. However, in the past, the Donald J. Trump foundation has donated more to the Clinton Foundation than it did to veterans. Here is the key quote from the article.

“... According to a recent analysis of the organization’s spending history by the Weekly Standard, Trump’s non-profit donated more money to the Clinton Foundation than it did to veterans causes.

Between 2009 and 2013, Trump’s non-profit donated between $100,001 and $250,000 to the Clinton Foundation. Over the same period of time, Trump’s group gave only $57,000 to veterans groups...”

Good. I know it will get distributed properly. It’s a certainty TRUMP doesn’t need it for food, shelter or transportation.

Thankfully.

Since this is so, donations will not go directly to veterans' support, as promised. However, it is to be hoped that all donations will go indirectly (through the foundation) to veterans' causes.

Just doing my duty...

A little donation thread is over here.

[chris37]

Hmm, yep, sure, of course that’s what it is. they obviously need it.

You Cruz folks should not throw stones. Ted has a bad history with ethics in his finances..........:)

[zerosix]

Aha! The Donald takes the tax credit for "humanitarian cause" and you get - a donation to "The Donald Trump Foundation?"

Maybe I could get the same warm and fuzzy feeling if I donated to the "Clinton Family Foundation!"
