Trump lies about his charitable giving...Total con man swine...

Trump promised to give away the proceeds of Trump University. He promised to donate the salary he earned from “The Apprentice.” Hepromised to give personal donations to the charities chosen by contestants on “Celebrity Apprentice.” He promised to donate $250,000 to a charity helping Israeli soldiers and veterans.

Together, those pledges would have increased Trump’s lifetime giving by millions of dollars. But The Post has been unable to verify that he followed through on any of them.

Instead, The Post found that his personal giving has almost disappeared entirely in recent years. After calling 420-plus charities with some connection to Trump, The Post found only one personal gift from Trump between 2008 and the spring of this year. That was a gift to the Police Athletic League of New York City, in 2009. It was worth less than $10,000.
No wonder he and Hannity get along.....Hannity promised to get waterboarded for charity and didn't.
 
Given that the crazy regressives still think tax avoidance is a crime, I have zero credibility regarding any of their business investigation... zero.

In fact, given they raise this point it's probable that Trump is the biggest philanthropist of all time. Usually these people tend to come to the conclusion that is OPPOSITE of the reality. A special skill if you will...
 
7 Things You Need To Know About The Clinton Foundation
2. For an organization that is supposedly a charity, the Clinton Foundation spent very little money on "direct aid." IRS documents showed that the Foundation raised over $500 million from 2009-2012, and yet the Clinton Foundation only spent $75 million on "programmatic grants."

"The other $425 million was allocated as follows: more than $25 million went for travel expenses; almost $110 million for employee salaries and benefits; and $290 million for 'other expenses,'" reports Discover The Networks.

These numbers were similar in the foundation's 2013 tax returns, which revealed that the Clinton Foundation raised over $140 million but only used $9 million in direct aid, according to the New York Post:

On its 2013 tax forms, the most recent available, the foundation claimed it spent $30 million on payroll and employee benefits; $8.7 million in rent and office expenses; $9.2 million on “conferences, conventions and meetings”; $8 million on fundraising; and nearly $8.5 million on travel. None of the Clintons is on the payroll, but they do enjoy first-class flights paid for by the foundation.

In all, the group reported $84.6 million in “functional expenses” on its 2013 tax return and had more than $64 million left over — money the organization has said represents pledges rather than actual cash on hand.

Indeed, Form 990 shows that the Clintons used the money raised by the foundation to pay for their travel expenses, which included "travel by charter or in first class."

"The Clintons get nothing from the foundation except free travel on chartered jets and first-class airline seats and hotel stays and, oh yes, control over a giant operating budget to steer to the charities and good causes that they prefer," writes National Review's Jim Geraghty. "Practically nothing!"



4. The Clinton Foundation's donors include countries with awful records on women's rights. Via Geraghty, these countries include:

  • $1-5 million from Qatar.
  • $5-10 million from Kuwait.
  • $10-$25 million from Saudi Arabia.
"These governments are not exactly known for their equitable treatment of women," writesGeraghty. "If they wanted to promote women’s rights, changing their own laws would do far more than their millions in donations ever will."

Saudi Arabia's laws are especially horrendous towards women. The Week lists nine things women can't do in the country, which includes swimming, driving and playing sports.

The Clinton Foundation had started the Full Participation project, which was aimed "to expand women’s access to contraception and education, increase their involvement in the workforce, and fight child marriage," according to Geraghty. And yet the foundation took money from countries that treat women as second-class citizens.

I can keep going. Like I said don't throw stones in glass houses.
 
Let me get this right ..... 650,000 Clinton emails found on the laptop of a pedophile, huh?

And, you're worried about charitable commentary??

Methinks you try to deflect attention from the collapse of a series of carefully constructed lies.
Liar. Actually brainwashed functional moron. We don't know that. They only got the warrant on Sunday, dingbat. Ay caramba, dupe.

We know that 650,000 emails were found on Weiner's computer - because the request for warrant said so.

Nothing else matters ... they don't have to be classified, Hillary didn't have to send them .... we know this: a person not authorized access to State Dept data (for which Hillary Clinton was responsible) had access to 650,000 State Dept emails.

Nothing more has to be said.

the New BS GOP

RW BS...So many GOP witch hunts

Liar. Actually brainwashed functional moron. dingbat. Ay caramba, dupe.
Poor little haterpubdupes sees the hangman closing in on his party of socialists, and is lashing out with all the namecalling and insults he can think of... which isn't many, fortunately.

It's all the leftist fanatics have to offer when the truth comes out about them.
The truth being some e-mails exist....about which the New BS GOP has unlimited conspiracy theories... time to fight back. With FACTS about your scumbag con man hero, dupes. Refuses to show tax returns, for good reason lol. Lied about EVERYTHING he's ever done.
No one has accused Trump of breaking the law ... the worst that has happened is somebody has bitched because he used a LEGAL loophole to avoid paying taxes.

Doesn't sound like a crime to me ... can you say the same about 650,000 emails?
 
No one has accused Trump of breaking the law ...
He is still under audit, but besides that he is using campaign money to fund himself.

Technically he might be able to get away with it, so it remains to be seen if he will be charged with some kind of fraud. Besides the Trump University trial, which is another matter.
