Trump pledged $1 million. Could he do more? Sure, but it's a decent amount of money.


Hey Bill, Hey Hillary, Hey Clinton "foundation"....

I discussed this on yet another thread. The Clinton Foundation operates under a set of rules concerning where the donated money goes to. It cannot, willy-nilly, suddenly divert said funds to domestic disasters.


A simple example for you: I give to Muscular Dystrophy, which is set up to help those afflicted with that disorder. I would be upset if MDA suddenly said "Hey, that money you donate? Going to help people in Florida/Texas/etc." Unless they specified that the money would be to used to help those afflicted with Muscular Dystrophy in those areas, yes, I would be upset.

I love thread like this - it's obvious trolling and if the OP spent even a moment listening to the news - oh, wait, that's all "liberal" - he would have known that the Clinton's contributed.

Meanwhile, Trump has a long history of promising to make donations and failing to deliver, at least until the "evil liberal" media calls him out on it.

I wouldn't expect to see a dime from Trump when it comes to charity, unless he stole the money from somebody else... and considering how his "net worth" is mostly composed of legally stolen money, that would make sense.

So instead of attacking the OP & Trump please provide information about how much the Clinton's gave.

I thought so.

I don't know about the Clinton foundation, but either Bill or Hillary, or you or I for that matter, could have quietly made donations without making a big deal out of it.

Hillary Clinton doesn't do anything quietly.

I was thinking of making a donation, but the right wing has politicized the issue in this and other threads. Screw it.

It talks about organizing a fund raiser, like they did with Haiti. And a quick google of that item shows that there was plenty of unaccounted for money.


Drain The Swamp!!!
