    LMAO...So they gave less than a million each year, meanwhile using the charity as a personal piggy bank for themselves. What a cheap billionaire.
    Bill Gates gives away more in a month than the whole trump crime family did in 14 years. What a hoot.
    You people really have to bend over quite far to polish this latest turd from your great orange hope.

    “No. No he’s not. We’ll stop it,” Strzok reportedly replied.....snip~

    Trump offered to donate 5 millions dollars to inner city charities, if obama showed his birth certificate.

    obama refused, and the kids got nothing.

    Trump also promised millions of donations to veterans -- and then didn't donate, until he was called out on it. Trump is a con man.

    The money raised during Trump’s special event to benefit veterans initially went to the Donald J. Trump Foundation, but it’s inaccurate to say that the money ended up in the candidate’s personal account or will be used to fund his presidential campaign.

    In response to queries over the matter, on 31 May 2016 Donald Trump held a press conference to announce that he eventually gave “close to six million dollars” to veterans’ groups and that the press “should be ashamed of themselves” for asking questions about the money he donated.

    “I have never received such bad publicity for doing such a good job,” Trump said in a press conference at Trump Tower in Manhattann. He issued a list of the veterans groups who received the money, saying that “As of this moment, [the total amount donated] is $5.6 million. All of the money has been spent.”

    Trump said he didn’t release the names of the veterans organizations sooner because he wanted to respect their privacy and asserted that the money for a number of these groups had already been delivered some time earlier.

    Trump’s list of checks already issued read as follows:

    22Kill: $200,000.

    Achilles International : $200,000

    American Hero Adventures: $100,000

    LMAO...If your great orange hope had any class, he would have donated the money anyway and proved he wasn't lying like he does about everything else.
    Of course, if he had any class, he wouldn't be using his so-called charity as a personal slush fund and piggy bank.
