Fleecing the rubes

If you donated for a chance to win dinner with Donald Trump, your check may not have gone to the Republican’s campaign — and you certainly won’t be sharing an intimate meal at a table for two.

A Super PAC not affiliated with Trump has been hawking a chance to win “Dinner with Donald Trump,” but not a dime of the $1 million raised has gone to the real estate mogul’s campaign, and the promised dinner is just a plate at a large, impersonal fundraiser.

“This is robbery,” Mary Pat Kulina, who gave $265 to the shady American Horizons PAC, told Politico. “I want my money back, and I want them to add up what they stole from people and give it to Donald Trump.”

And don’t worry, Trump fans: there’s still one way to win a meal with the candidate and ensure your funds go directly to his campaign. The politician himself has launched his own “Dinner with Trump” donation contest. Just make sure the website you’re donating to is his campaign site,

Yeah, it's always wise to be sure you're not dealing with a crooked dimocrat Super PAC these days.

No dinner for a donation, no wall built, no deportations.

A pattern for Dodgy Donald arises.
