This is amusing & sad. Trump donates more to politicians than veterans. Sad.
Trump’s debate stunt outs his donation history. Amusing.

If the money was going to HILLARY’S private foundation, I’d worry. TRUMP’S foundation is a non-issue.

So from his foundation the money will be distributed to various veterans groups. Where exactly do you want the money to be held in the meantime?

Nonissue.

SMART MOVE - rather than trusting sites run by LEFT-WING types posing as supporting veterans, Trump is making sure that the money GOES WHERE IT IS NEEDED.

The guy is AMAZING.

Just donated, thanks for the link.

The site says they’ve raised a quarter of a million already!

People who think this constant barrage of nitpicking stupid stuff hurts Trump are fools. The average Joe America, regardless of who he likes in the election, does not like to see a fellow citizen undergo personal attack all day long by a still powerful (but not for long), bullying news media.

If he fails to use his foundation funds for vets, we will hear about it like have have heard about the sham Clinton foundation.

Remember Poppy Bush and their long lost son, Clinton, collecting those millions and not funding Haitian needs? It all went into the Clinton Foundation...

Not all foundations are scam artists like Clinton and Ford.

i guess i don’t understand what the problem is.

Trump has established a non-profit, charitable foundation whose purpose it is to collect money to help vets. There are many such non-profit charitable foundations supporting vets that have many different names. This non-profit, charitable foundation is named the Donald J. Trump foundation. And the web site twice says that’s the foundation’s name on the donation page.

The money is accounted for as a specific fund and will be removed periodically and transferred to the receiving party. Trumps people are well trained in fund accounting. There will be no problems.

The writer is totally ignorant concerning fund accounting.

Oh brother. Yes, his friends who donated millions really just gave Trump the money. What?? Sheesh. He had 24 hours to set this whole thing up. He studied the charities and picked ones that cost less to run and benefitted the wounded military the most. I believe he said he handpicked 15 charities and he will be the one to divvy up the donations.

I am sure it will be clarified and above board. But this was all set up within 24 hours. It was a good thing he did, and no, he isn’t going to use the money for himself.
