He's leaving himself "wiggle room" on almost every issue.

Trump has been on all sides of every issue.

But he is the one billionaire you can trust. He*s not like the others.

Donald Trump: The Least Charitable Billionaire In The World

He cares about the little guy. It*s not just about him.

That is a very very lame and practically incoherent criticism.

Sorry, doesn't mean diddly squat and you know it. TRYE "charity" is creating real wealth and providing jobs that empower people. Faux charity such as the Pharisees had, looks good on the tax return but changes few lives.

I suspect you won't, but look at a video series by Acton Institute called "Poverty, INC." about the guilt ridden "charity" business. People like Trump are the only true "givers" left.

Donald Trump: The Least Charitable Billionaire In The World..

So we are quick to see Trump’s contributions, how do they compare to the others? Not in dollars but in percentages

Beating this drum of yours, you are really coming across as a self-righteous, liberal Roman Catholic.

Enjoy your self-beatification.

And don’t bother responding to me. I had a self-righteous Roman Catholic Mother-in-Law from Mexico who managed to break-up my marriage after convincing my son’s Mother (her daughter) that after ignoring firm discipline for 14-years, it was appropriate to use physical and emotional abuse to try and catch-up, especially about failure to adhere to her “pure” religion.

OUT!

Okay, I'll bite. You posted this graph ...


Now there are four broad scenarios for Trump or any other person with respect to donations ...

Now would someone like to explain to me how his donations are anything other than perfectly reasonable and understandable?

Am I to understand that we should want only those who have a perfect track record of contributing only to (R)INOs? Since the bulk of the (R)epublican politicians are in fact RINOs there is no way to be a large donor and not end up funding those traitors as there are very few Cruz and Lee type politicians these days, or any day for that matter. Therefore, we should be wishing that Trump's donations mirrored those of a Romney, or McCain? Well isn't that exactly what Bush is? Isn't that exactly what our problem is? We're thinking outside the box here man.

Furthermore, doesn't anyone see the value in this kind of track record when the general election comes along and the guy needs votes from those you apparently despise? This is an advantage, not a black mark against him. He has to get those votes, and so would you if you were running. If you think you can win without getting crossovers then you are mathematically and historically challenged.

So how does this graph speak ill of him? Logically there is just no significance to this. He is running for President of the United States, not the RNC. It shows he is not a slave to the elitist (R)INO donor class which has murdered us at every opportunity and despises us with every fiber of their being.

When you can not only post the number of “fishes” that Donald Trump has given away; but a graph showing all the people he’s taught to fish and provided a place in which to do so; I’d really like to see those graphs.

For all the abuse you’re taking, it appears you scored a direct hit.

and are you Trump’s left hand, that you should know every good thing that he ever did?

I’ll bet if a hundred freepers were given 100 million dollars by daddy at the age of 29 a few of them would be wealthier than Donald at 70. Just putting the money in an index fund would garner more than 19 billion.

So, the notion that he is some kind of genius businessman is dubius.
