You do understand (that's rhetorical BTW, we know you don't) that was from a left wing rag with nothing to back up the claim other than "we said."

But you on the left appear to believe "we said" on the left.

But, lets play the stupid leftist word game....

Lets say they were donated for AUCTION (you understand what an auction is for?), did they provide money in the end? Of course it did..can you say otherwise?

There goes that goal post again.....damn dude....why's it got to change so many times in a 8 page thread?

The issue is out there and on peoples minds this election season. And yet, DT refuses to give us any hard data on a )his personal giving b) more than a suspicious hint or two about his foundation's giving and c) he refuses to divulge any information about his tax burden. So, we don't know, and are starting to think that he might not, a) pay any taxes and b) has no need of tax deductions and doesn't donate to any tax deductible charities.
And you support Hillary? What a hypocrite. Or do you expect liberals to be corrupt, lying criminals so she is leading by example for your party?

But, in that massive list, one thing was missing.

Not a single one of those donations was actually a personal gift of Trump’s own money.

No need, also why does time have to do with anything? and if you'll comprehend the graph, you'll see that not only the 26 million dollars but also through 2008 he did donate his personal money...

n addition, the $26 million land donation at the top of the first page was actually from 2006, too old to be counted on the list.
All you have to do is prove them wrong.....don't be mad....it's alright...

Educate yourself on the Clinton Foundation and the lives they have saved.

By contrast, Donald Trump used HIS foundation to bribe a couple attorney generals via campaign contributions. An illegal use of foundation funds, I might add.

Oops. Donald helps himself and that's it. That is how it's always been and how it is today.

Moving the goal post? Trump claimed he donated from his personal money $100 million. All I have to do is disprove that, which I have.

Added by edit.

To be clear. I'm actually against charity donation. I believe it does nothing to lift the poor out of poverty.

But Trump made the claim that he donated from his personal wealth $100 million to charity. Either he did or he didn't. Own up to it.
