Completely and totally insane. If nothing else, don't you think a swarm of good journalists (which would not Lightweight Journalist Megyn Kelly) will audit this fundraiser with a fine-toothed comb? Like they did his FEC filing?
I think they must be somehow directly involved with the Cruz campaign, and this reflects panic.
I like Ted Cruz, and have advocated him as a great pick for USSC. But if these loons and the nonsense coming from Glenn Beck are the fruit of that tree, I'm rethinking that.
Well, there were all these posts about how the Wounder Warriors only delivered 60% of the donated funds to veterans, so obviously, Donald Trump decided to do this himself, since the “establishment” veterans groups were not doing the job.
Really? Have you seen all 69 Tax Returns?......Are you harry Reid’s “friend” who saw Mitt’s?
If TRUMP copied Cruz, he would be likewise losing.
Fortunately, TRUMP is a genius and then some.
I just donated $20. The link is the first time I’ve been able to get to the site. Thank you.
States directly on website that 100% of donations goes directly to Veterans needs. With all the long knives out for Trump does anyone honestly believe that even the smallest part of this isn’t legit?
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...”
when Trump heads to the border with soccer balls and teddy bears he’ll be copying Cruz
That's the point, why can I "count on Donald to...." when his track record is anything I "can count on!"
Busted!
They're a waste of time. People like you aren't interested in the facts or researching the facts.
You just grab the first piece of 0bama you see about Trump, like a crow on a shiny gewgaw, and throw it against the wall to see if it sticks.
Some boob upthread is trotting out some "$57,000" number when there's a thread on the board today about Trump donating $1 million in 1983 to build the Vietnam Veterans Plaza in New York City.
First Trump can’t very well accept charitable donations to his personal or campaign accounts. I doubt he has had time to form a new foundation since yesterday.
WHOAH!
Yep, Trump really needs his “cut” from the donations.
Good grief - the Canucksters are totally insane and lacking any common sense. Kinda like leftists...
I wonder if they think that Trump can get a 501c3 set up in two days just for this? It usually takes a year. Of course if you already have one that is a conduit. You would use that. My KOC council raises money for charities. Checks and cash from an earmarked event go into our Charity Account and we present one check from us.
It's a 501(c)3
You have to stick the money somewhere to disperse it. His charitable foundation makes sense. Where do you want to keep it until it is dispersed to the veterans groups???
Nobody has ever campaigned or suggested reform beyond (1) securing entry into the US (2) deporting illegals (3) forcing people to leave when their visas expire.(4)EVerify so US citizens get US jobs and (5) cutting way back on work visas

Trumpees????? Really? I used to stand in awe of the I intellect here at Free Republic. At least Democrat Underground is creatively funny; this is just school yard name calling.
