Discussion: The Timeline Of Trump And Friends’ Donations To Veterans Makes No Sense

Carbon dating might help solve any discrepancies, but since that’s been proven a hoax I’m unsure where to go from here.

Since he said he donated it must be true.

If The reporters had waited another week would the check have ever been written? I have serious doubts!

Why am I not surprised that Donald “the draft dodging coward” Trump would try to stiff veterans?

Trump is the original gutless, lying sack of shit.

Trump told The Washington Post that he never said the Iowa fundraiser raised $6 million. When reminded of his comment during the event that he had raised that amount, Trump replied that he didn’t have tape of it.

Yet Trump reiterated that the fundraiser raised $6 million for vets that same day in an Instagram video, in which he railed against the “dishonest” media for the way it has reported on the donations.

Hmmmm…

From the linked Media Matters article:

Lewandowski: … But the money that he has raised has been distributed to not just the 22 veteran groups that we outlined, but many, many, many more.

And have they released the list of those additional “many, many, many more” organizations?

I am convinced we have lost our democracy sad to admit this but Donald Trump owns our country lock stock and barrel. I am old enough to remember this investigation of what was done and the evasive lies would have immediately disqualified Trump as a man of low character what I hear Is the sounds of silence. Using The Veterans to further himself…I still remember history and the Faschists

He said he raised it for them, he didn’t say he gave it to them so technically he didn’t lie.

I keep trying to find something positive, compassionate or even remotely human about Donald Trump, but so far, I’m coming up empty. I mean, even Hitler was nice to his dog, but I don’t think that Trump has a dog … just Melanoma.

In Mississippi saying someone “is nice to their dog” gets you punched in the jaw.

I am sure Breitbart and James O’Keefe will be right on this in 999,999, 999,998, 999,997…

No documentation of claims of wealth over 10 billion, no tax returns, no documentation of the groups receiving money raised for vets, no accounting for how much raised and where it went.

Boy…if I was looking to run offshore accounts, THIS is the guy I would want handling the books when the Feds come knocking.

The Trumpeters will say “See he’s a good guy, a million dollars!”

Yeah, only after five months of hounding him.

Also, raising money for veterans, and then only giving it out to those who support you is not raising money for charity - it’s buying support.

Now Bernie, this is reason #971 why you need to exit the race immediately. This clown is a real threat to the country and every Democrat and Independent needs to focus on the disaster a Trump presidency would be. Four years of Donald’s nonsense would finalize the destruction Bush started. Now do the honorable thing (like Kasich and Cruz) and exit the race and tell everyone who’ll listen to you what Donald would do to our country. “Oh, that aid for Syria, yeah we sent it. Oh it didn’t arrive? I’ll have my accountants look into it. I never said we’d send aid to anyone.”

Perfectly normal, nothing to see, see? Else Trump’s vicious little (and I do mean tiny, minuscule) and heavily varnished attorney will climb up a step ladder to get totally in your FACE, M-effer, if you get my meaning???

presidential debate hosted by Fox News to hold a fundraiser to benefit
