1. You call yourself an "ardent philanthropist," but have not donated a dollar to The Donald J. Trump Foundation since 2006. You're not even the biggest donor to the foundation, having given about $3.7 million in the previous two decades while businesses associated with Vince McMahon's World Wrestling Entertainment gave the Trump Foundation $5 million. All the money since 2006 has come from those doing business with you.
5. The biggest gift you have talked about appears to be an easement at the Palos Verdes, California, golf course bearing your name on land you wanted to build houses on, but that land is subject to landslides and is now the golf course driving range.
Did you or one of your businesses take a tax deduction for this land that you could not build on and do you think anyone should get a $25 million tax deduction for a similar self-serving gift?
6. Trump Tower is not a steel girder high rise, but 58 stories of concrete.
Why did you use concrete instead of traditional steel girders?
7. Trump Tower was built by S&A Concrete, whose owners were "Fat" Tony Salerno, head of the Genovese crime family, and Paul "Big Paul" Castellano, head of the Gambinos, another well-known crime family.
If you did not know of their ownership, what does that tell voters about your management skills?

Will they be quiet if he receives the nomination?
Where’s his “21 Questions for Hillary Clinton” and “21 Questions for Barack Obama” articles?
Gawd. If the remaining 14 questions are as insipid and stupid as the 1st 7, then I may change my mind about this being a Trump hit piece.
I may need to take a break from politics for awhile. The stupidity is becoming too hard to handle.
Oh boy. Yeah, the MSM is giving him a ride. I personally never believed his bragging. How many other millionaires or billionaires act like him? Can’t think of any.
Excepting Donald most people aren’t into braggarts and bullies.
Maybe someone will ask soon.
Already bookmarked.
Thanks
Sniff, Sniff, You smell that? The stench of desperation is so strong you could cut it with a knife.
I would bet that the reason the concrete company was used was competitive bidding.
As to why the building is concrete rather than steel girders who actually cares and why is it important? That would be a better question to ask the architect.
His donations to the foundation look a lot more legit than than the Clinton foundation
However, there are a few questions on the list that need no answers. At one time NYC, you had to go through the mob to get things done. Don't know about how it is today, but if Trump did what DCJ insinuated, I understand it.
We have 21 questions for Sen. Cruz, considering that the charges are so serious, 21 questions for trump seems fair.
trump brought this upon itself.
Moreover, how dare he question The Trump? He should not question The Trump. He should accept everything The Trump says without question. He should bow down before The Trump. The Trump will usher in the Rapture.
I don't think that was it. It's more likely he didn't want any union problems when he used the alleged illegal immigrants for the demolition.
I'm sure this kind of stuff will be run non stop if he gets the nomination.
Anybody who is in private business knows there's a lot of "gray area" when you want to get something done.
You are probably right. But if the concrete company is legit is there any reason not to use them?
Is this supposed to be the “ change the subject from Cruz” attempt?
The concrete (not steel girder) skyscraper is important because Trump used a mafia controlled concrete company, and it would be a very unusual construction method for a building of that height.
LOL
a few days ago, I heard a report that said 66% of the concrete in NYC is controlled by the mob. Now legitimate businesses of course. It was the re-run of the Gotti Jr story on 60 minutes.

Interesting.
But can you answer the questions?
Don’t you want him to answer these questions before the media brings them up?
Why yes....yes that’s all true. /s
