Add ā€œrude, crude and socially unacceptableā€ to the list of words describing 45.

Hit him where it hurtsā€¦his wallet.

Not just his wallet. He gets an ego trip from hosting charitable events and being seen as a philanthropist.

Oh boy, if Donnie Two Scoopsā€™s handlers canā€™t block him from this bit of news, the Phoenix rally will be full of BS-powered whiny-ass fireworks!

The United Way has figured out the president is a Nazi. Now if only the GOP in Congress would get it too, and do the right thing.

We need a new president. Now.

Trumpā€™s cash cow of overcharging charities for using his private golf courses is rapidly drying up.

Just on the basis of being efficient and cost wise on spending, charities should have pulled out of using Trumpā€™s properties and operations long ago!

The word CHARITY and Mar-a-Lago is like mixing oil with water - they donā€™t belong together!

Trump: This has Obamaā€™s prints all over it. He may have colluded with The Crooked on this one.

On top of everything, the golfers in the group complained that some Athol had been trashing the greens with a golf cart.

It was an easy contrast of Nazis against America. To no oneā€™s surprise the Collaborator in Chief supported the Nazis. I am gratified that he is being censured by American organizations even if Congress and the Fourth Estate no longer can.

Waiting for georgeh to show up to tell us that charities shouldnā€™t be censoring hate speech and that this is an egregious violation of Trumpā€™s free speech rights.

Opposing Nazis is a very slippery slope.

As great as it is seeing companies and charities pull away from supporting Trumpā€™s Constitutionally prohibited emoluments, the end result will be Trump seeing that itā€™s easier to scam money from our federal government than from other sources. Weā€™re all paying for this disaster and his offspring.

The financial down side to Trumpā€™s refusal to divest. All during the campaign it was ALWAYS about ā€˜the brandā€™, which is getting pretty tarnished. Trumpā€™s glittering business acumen is really just cheap paint.

KEEP IT UP, PEOPLE!

Itā€™s not ā€œcharitableā€ anyway! Trump and family make a lot of money on these junkets, charging for hotel stays, meals, coffee, cake, refreshments, etc. ƌtā€™s a shell game and we are the patsies!

Oh, definitely. But lots of people abuse the system without gate crashing events like Trump did with a charity for children with AIDS. Thatā€™s narcissism, pure and simple.

But that was a week ago today, ancient history.
Trumpā€™s, again, teeing up the football for the media, er Charlie Brownā€¦

If Trump was providing the venues to the charities for free, or at least at cost, then maybe he could play the ā€œcharitableā€ card. But charging organizations to rent out a club for an event doesnā€™t make you a philanthropist. It makes you a site manager.

Sounds like it got an earful from its supporters, too. That was a very nice statement.

Iā€™d like to see a hotel or other property that has a license for the use of the Trump name and maybe has a contract for Trump Org. management, to just walk away from the agreement and use another name. Obama Tower would be nice - but any name would be fine - Super 8, Ramada, Daveā€™s, Real Prezā€¦ I know Trump Org. would sue them - but, damn that would be fun to see.
