Does Trump charge to give speeches? If he does what does he charge? Does he do so to charitable and religious organizations?

St. Martin's does not appear to have advertised Bush's visit. Although the church frequently promotes its speaker series events, there is no mention of him or a Sept. 30 event on its website or Facebook page. The church has more than 8,400 congregants, but there seems to be no trace on social media of a Bush speech or appearance.

(A search for Bush's name on Twitter in the dates from Sept. 30 to Oct. 4 doesn't surface any posts that indicate he was at the church in person or delivered a speech via Skype or video.)

He takes $50K from church for a speech and the church doesn't even promote the event? No one mentions it on Twitter? This is just odd.

More questions.

If his last name was Branch and he was a former Florida governor would he still command $43,000 per speech?

Why is he worth anything more than a free meal for the benefit of speaking?

Is he that inspiring? What does he say?

‘In order to become a success, I advise you to be born into a long time political family. Use that political clout to become a successful real estate developer utilizing inside information and political contacts to become wealthy enough to exploit your name recognition, family fortune and political clout to be elected governor of a swing state even though you never held elected office in the past.’

Good advice, but can the average person replicate that success?

Bush's usual rate seems to be $42,500

I think I just figured it out.

His normal fee is $42k. The church's cut for being the pass through was $7500.

So if people dropping cash in the basket each Sunday didn’t fund the church, it’s ministries, etc - but a speech by el Jebbo?

I think Jeb took $50,000 from a Gay Friendly church.

That may not be too bad.

Everyone in this man’s nuclear family is a petty criminal. Drugs, smuggling, attempted burglary or rape or both, public copulation and now apparent money laundering and graft. Each and every cross eyed one of them is a criminal.

Why are we still even talking about these Republican Kennedys?
