Discussion: Trump Gives $1M Donation To Veterans Group After WaPo Calls Him Out On It

I’m shocked that a draft dodging coward with a boo boo on his foot would lie about helping veterans!

Well, at least now he’ll have enough charitable contributions to make it smart for him to itemize his deductions. Not like before.

He’s making it too easy to call him out. He raised at least $4.5 million, personally donated $1M, and the rest is where? Poor guy, surrounded by so much dishonesty and so little ability to keep track of what he’s done.

Trump also said he had never actually promised that the fundraiser had raised $6 million. ā€œI didn’t say six,ā€ Trump said.

In a video of the event, Trump tells the crowd at the end, ā€œWe just cracked $6 million! Right? $6 million.ā€

When asked about that quote, Trump said, ā€œWell, I don’t. I don’t have the notes. I don’t have the tape of it.ā€

Fuck it, we’ll do it live.

What a sleeze bag. He never would have coughed up the money if WaPo had not pursued it. You can be sure he would have written it off his taxes even if he never did make the payment.

Trump told The Washington Post that he never said he had raised $6 million [but] Trump can be heard in video recording of the event saying they had ā€˜just cracked $6 million’…"

ā€œI think I’m almost too honest to be a politician.ā€ – Donald Trump

It doesn’t take four months to write a check, you lying bastard. You cheap, chiseling son of a bitch. Insult the POWs and use the veterans and just do you, you POS. This is just the beginning.

But he didn’t even donate that donation until he was forced to by, gosh darn it, those lying media types asking him where the hell the money was. How dare they question him, the lying liars!

Gosh, will this slo pay affect Trump’s credit rating?
I mean what a POS…Trump has to be forced to live up what he and his people have declared on TV and calls the reporter names in the process. Petty cheat…

If you’re quiet and listen, you can hear Hillary laughing…

Trump must need tonight’s fundraiser to keep Melania in like.

Was it even his own money, or did it come from that damn foundation of his, which isn’t his own, he grifts it from people stupider than him? (WaPo’s paywall keeps me from enlightening myself on this.) He never gives away his own to charity. Not once ever. Says he does, but you know the deal on that. Take it away, Jeet Heer:

Falsehoods fly out of Donald Trump’s mouth with such unstoppable frequency that it’s tempting to describe him as a liar. … Yet the increasingly frequent tendency of Trump’s critics to label him a liar is wrongheaded. Trump is something worse than a liar. He is a bullshit artist.

Trump’s America would truly be a nation swimming in bullshit.

Indeed.

I’m pleased Mark Halperin appears to be lodged deep in Trump’s intestines where I hope he metastasises…

Hillary shouldn’t be laughing. She should be planning four moves into the future and making absolutely sure that The Donnie’s penis size is a news item that will be in rotation until November 5.

Saying thank you while almost on the floor laughing.

@twowolves I don’t think I’m ready for talk of a rotating donnie penis.

Paragraph added to the end of the CBS report:

it’s still unclear where the $1 million from Trump’s personal account went and still unclear how much was actually raised in total.

My question: Is this new vet group legitimate? The one he claimed he was raising money for that night with ā€œhundreds of thousands of membersā€ was one guy … just on frickin’ scum ball.

So he makes a pledge, welshes on it and only pays up when he is publicly called out about his failure…in 3, 2, 1 they lied, I was always going to do it, etc, etc, etc, etc along with an overnight Twitter rant.
