I don't think it's the only donating he has done.

Mmmm...

The egomaniac and his wife donated money (tax write-off) to an already existing program that only caters to 16-24 year olds. In the ****hole that is the South Side of Chicago & nothing has changed in Chicago, since they did.

And then there is this, after the messiah said "2million":

The former president used the event to unveil plans for a 200,000-square-foot campus on Chicago’s South Side that will house the Obama Presidential Center [and his ego].
I should have been a little more clear...what is the "hometown Chicago" Obama boy doing anything outside of donating money? If Joey B. @ 78 years old thinks he can run a country, where is Obama helping his own? Boots on the ground, getting involved in the ****hole of a community with his community organizer background...and where is Michelle? Why isn't she all up an in Chicago's public school system and promoting "healthy lunches"? At least she could learn from her mistakes.

Once those two clowns got what they came for ($$$) - they don't really care much about much.

They are happy buying up an $11+M dollar house in the very white town of Martha's Vineyard, an $8M+ house in Kalorama (a little very white, residential & exclusive hood in DC) as well spending over $8M on a property in Hawaii, only to raze the house (Magnum PI) and build his own little compound to the tune of who knows how many millions of dollars.

These two idiots are living like they won a $1B powerball - zero substance, lots of ego and they're both good giving crumbs to those in Chicago...that was SO important to both of them, before it wasn't.

So it was interesting that when he accused Dems of being anarchists--and silly because Dems are the opposite of anarchist, wanting more regulation and legislation. There are a variety of definitions of anarchy, but one is a disregard for rules and norms, especially in politics and government, and this is certainly true of Trump. And it's long been said that he thrives on chaos, which is linguistically synonymous with anarchy.

So, he sounds like a kind of anarchist to me.
No. He is a dictator (wannabe)

I don't see Trump pouring money into trailer parks in the south or even Queens...... So now you are jealous of the rich?

Trump didn't grow up, with a sob story, in a trailer park in the south.

He's donated, way before he was POTUS, millions to many foundations. Gave NYC residents jobs, still does (not through a one time donation). Can't say the same about the Messiah & his wife.

Trump didn't pretend he was all about the "community" which he "came from". Obama did and still does - it is more than obvious that he'd rather live anywhere other than Chicago. He prefers to live among the 1%, and they ain't exactly the same skin color he is.

Go crawl up his ass for being such an Uncle Tom.

Ridiculous.

Stalin was a dictator, his movement was based on a cult of personality around him. Quite the opposite of Biden, who doesn’t have a lot of personality but likes to govern by consensus.

Stalin had millions imprisoned and executed. How many has Biden had executed?

Under Stalin, the Soviet Union annexed the Baltic States and exerted control over Eastern Europe. How much territory has Biden added to the US?

Honestly, I don't think I'd call Trump an anarchist. I see him as more of an opportunist. A user. I think he went into this presidential run as a way to increase his brand and was as surprised that he won.

Once you hand over that kind of power to a malignant narcissist that lacks the character to wield that power responsibly? You create a monster.

Trump used the presidency as a means to increase his wealth. Putting in yes men to do your political bidding is not the definition of an anarchist. Yes, Trump likes chaos. It keeps people off balance. That might be good for him, but it was not good for our country. Anarchist? No.

Greedy opportunist? Yes.

You mean like the Trump Foundation, which was exposed as a phony charity for Trump to enrich himself?
