Remember when Trump was screaming at the top of his lungs during the campaign about how the Clinton Foundation had sold access to Hillary while she was SoS? He said it was pay for play and cronyism.

Now................Trump's sons are doing the same thing. They are now saying that if you donate 1 MILLION dollars to their charity "Cufflinks and Camoflage", you not only get a private meeting with Trump after he's sworn in for you and 15 of your friends, you also get a hunting trip with him or his sons and some other bennies.

Now...............donating to a made up "conservation charity", just so that you can get access to the president, well............that's kinda the same thing that Trump accused Hillary of when he said she was doing pay for play with her office as SoS.

Trump's Sons Offer Inauguration Access for $1 Million
 
It's to the inauguration. Not even close to being the same thing.

Did you even read the link? Not only do you get a PRIVATE audience with him and 15 of your friends, you also get to go hunting with either him or his son.

Yes, that IS selling access to the white house.
 
The word is spelled "camouflage" not camoflauge. It's interesting that the radical left seems to acknowledge the fact that the Klintons sold access to Hillary when she was Secy/State.

So my spelling is wrong on occasion. You spelled Clinton wrong (yeah, I know it was on purpose, but if you're gonna be petty, so can I).

And I seem to remember that Hillary selling access as SoS (she really didn't, it was blown out of proportion), was one of the main reasons that Trump was able to rail people against her, and now he's doing the same damn thing on the day he's sworn in.

The Clintons took in billions with their foundation that was nothing but a slush fund. Let's see if the Trump foundation funnels money to the Trump's private coffers...shall we???

Of course they're "not definitely participating yet", because now that the media is bringing this to light, they are checking to see if they can still go through with it.

Kinda like what they did when Trump said he would get rid of his holdings in a blind trust, but when his lawyers said he didn't, he changed his mind. Shoot, he is even gonna keep his position as executive producer on the Apprentice.

But watch.............it's gonna happen.

Well, you hope it's going to happen so you will have something to post about, but the story comes from TMZ, a gossip website not known for accuracy, and while Trump's sons are listed as directors of the Opening Day Foundation, they are only mentioned as honorary directors of the Opening Day Event, suggesting they do not have an active role in it.

Actually, I saw the story on cable news, and then went to the web to check it out again, and the link I used was from TIME, not TMZ.

Too bad it's the truth. W J Clinton sold access while in office and all of your denying won't change that. It's part of what made the campaign on the evils of " crooked Hillary" so believable by so many.

Celebrities do sometimes auction off their time to raise money for charities and Trump was a legitimate celebrity long before he ran for President, but I agree, if the story is true, that it would be in poor tasted to do it now that he is President-Elect, still it is bizarre to compare this to Clinton's secretive private meetings with donors to the Clinton Foundation when she was Secretary of State and her lies when it was pointed out to her the disproportionate amount of time she spent with them.

If Clinton had announced publicly that she would have a private lunch of dinner or even go hunting with anyone who donated $1,000,000 to the Clinton Foundation, some people would have complained about it but it would never have become a major political issue: it's always the attempted cover up that gets her into trouble, with pay to play, her private server and even refusing to to turn over relatively innocuous White Water documents to a Congressional committee that gave rise to the call for a special prosecutor and ended up getting Bill impeached.

A distinction without a difference.
