Letâs compare the governing, the funding (including personal contributions from the families), the amounts verifiably contributed to the support and work of others, and the good done of the Clinton Foundation and the Trump Foundation at the very first opportunity, the town hall meeting this weekend.
Sounds like Trump was just running a super-lean operation so he could give maximum benefit to the poor, benighted souls the foundation has helped. Now, the Clinton Foundation, with all those vaccinations in the third world paid for by the Saudis, thatâs the real scandal. Everybody knows that vaccinations are how you put the microchips in children that give them autism.
The last time the charity reported on its tax returns any spending on legal fees was 2010, according to the Washington Post, and the total for the year was $53.
That boggles the mind. How much lawyering can you get for $53? That sounds like the fee for getting a notarized power of attorney.
@turdburgler Everybody knows that vaccinations are how you put the microchips in children that give them autism.
Sshhhhhh! Youâre going to give them ideas.
About 6 minutes.
Thatâs a pretty apt description of the entire Trump family. Cheap and donât care about anything but themselves. The model for what is called Ugly Americans.
Letâs not forget using the foundation to pay a political bribe.
And do we have to choose a) or b)? Seems likely to me that itâs both.
Trumpâs attorneys are too busy stonewalling contractors to pay attention to the niceties of registering a non-profit.
Maybe they just asked a passing lawyer to give them the time of the day?
Apparently not much.
So, letâs compare the legal fees Trump has spent on lawsuits to screw small businesses, contractors, and those who have broken his infamous non-disclosure/disparagement agreements in order to enrich himself, with the legal fees and care he has spent to properly and legally run the Trump Foundation, which to most peopleâs thinking should operate for ostensibly charitable purposes (but which actually also enriches himself).
âQuestions have also been raising about payments to Trump for goods and services that went directly to the foundation, where they may have escaped being taxed like personal income. The campaign has said the transactions followed the proper rules and regulations, but without Trumpâs personal tax releases, those claims cannot be independently confirmed.â
Did they follow the proper rules and regulations in the same way they followed NY rules and regulations in registering the foundation?
Thatâs what I thought.
It never fails: Everything about this cheap, vulgar con man is a glitzy fraud. Everything. Itâs like a physical law or a mathematical constant.
OR WHAT? Well we for sure heâs a WHINY LITTLE âBâ.
Somewhere I read that the same accountant that set up Donaldâs foundation also set up Ericâs foundation, which operates within the law (annual audits, no self dealing and so on). IMO (I am not a lawyer ) that would mean there was no ignorance in the Trump organization, rather malfeasance.
With his picture on it. How long after he was elected would it be before his portrait was on our postage stamps and currency?
Itâs likely Dr. Harry âFive Minute Physicalâ Bornstein is also Donnieâs chief tax advisor.
Of course Trump knows zero history but besides his name and image weâd have plenty of this kind of thing going on:
And yet the Deplorables on Twitter are constantly raging that Clinton Foundation paid Hillary a huge salary, spent very little on actual charity, and helped Russians steal our uranium.
