Clinton Foundation vs Ivanka Trump Foundation

Both funds solicit foreign money.

Eric Trump closed his chritable foundation for children. He had it a long time. Why does Ivanka Trump get to start this foundstion, especially with foreign funds.

She is an unpaid advisor to the president. Not sure if she is a government “employee” as employee is defined.

Also if she is unpaid by the foundation it seems there would be nothing illegal.

Frankly, I’d be a lot more comfortable if Ivanka and her husband would both return to NYC. Putting aside questionable (even if defensible) appearances, it’s pretty obvious both are RINOs and it’s established they’re the ones trying to marginalize Bannon.

I am pretty sure that she has lawyers who have looked at this. She can have a .org that makes no profit and does not pay her anything. That is not illegal. And we she says that its hers. She means that she is involved with it. But not that she owns it or runs it.

Of course it’s illegal...

She is a Trump and she breaths the free air...

Some libtards think it’s illegal for her to breath...

When I see Hillary behind bars, I’d be concerned about this...

I tend to agree. It might be the most honest and transparent operation in the world, but the comparisons will always be made.

Pass it off to someone for four or eight years.

2. Help Americans, not people on the other side of Earth.

If true, this is egregious and potentially illegal...

Well then by the writer's definition, it's possibly not egregious and is potentially legal...

I think the issue is worthy of looking at. If it is deemed improper, she should withdraw from the effort, and allow someone else to pick up the leadership.

I do not see it as a an avenue for personal gain. It would seem altruistic in nature.

Contrasting what we know about the Clintons and their foundation, she should skate very easily here, since the Clintons did.

So true about Eric Trump ending his foundation for children ....to remove even the impression of impropriety.

Ivanka opens hers for foreign donors from inside the West Wing of the White House.

I continue to think Ivanka will do her father’s credibility and administration great harm.

Mike Allen is a Trump-hating leftist. No one else is reporting this. The World Bank says that it, not Ivanks, would administer the fund which as of now is only in the discussion/possibility stage.

But go ahead and report Mike Allen’s gossip as fact. DailyKos does the same.
