From 1990 to 2009 it’s been found he averaged $185,000 a year of his money.

He also used his foundation to pay off lawsuits...

He’s Scrooge McDuck compared to most wealthy.

An article in the New Yorker about Trump's charitable giving is summed up:




"So what is the bottom line? Even including the $1 million Trump donated to veterans earlier this year (after prodding from Fahrenthold), the public records indicate that, over the past quarter of a century, he has given away less than $5 million of his own money. According to his own estimate, he is worth in excess of $10 billion. If we take him at is word, that means his charitable contributions come to about 0.05 per cent of his fortune, or 5 cents for every $100."--The New Yorker


Not exactly John D. Rockefeller. More like Scrooge McTrump.

It doesn't excuse Crooked Trump and his trashy mouth.

Trump will. As soon as his tax returns finish getting audited. That should be any decade now.

You?
For a second there, I thought you were going on about all the things Trump thought he was. Vietnam (i.e. STD) survivor, 9/11 first responder, charitable philanthropist, etc.
