Shame on Trump.

Holy shit, the snowflakes really got a lotta gotchas! This is crazy! The Clinton Foundation is as white as snow compared to this!

In 2012, the Eric Trump Foundation sent $5,000 to a charity called Abilis, which provides services to people with disabilities. That same year, Donald Trump's nephew Fred Trump, whose son has cerebral palsy, hosted the inaugural Golf for Abilis fundraiser at the Trump National Westchester. Over the next five years, Abilis spent an estimated $240,000 hosting tournaments at the property.

In 2013 and 2014, the Eric Trump Foundation paid $15,000 for tables at a gala for the Little Baby Face Foundation, according to a spokesman for the latter foundation. Over the next three years, Little Baby Face spent an estimated $100,000 to hold golf outings on the Trump course. The foundation denies any direct connection between the two transactions.

Janet McHugh, the founder of a small charity named Julie's Jungle, was delighted to receive $25,000 in total donations from the Donald and Eric Trump foundations in 2013--money she figured came from Eric and Donald Trump personally. Two years later, her charity hosted a golf tournament at Trump National Hudson Valley. McHugh says the decision to hold her tournament there was unrelated to the donation. "They didn't comp us the golf course," she says. "We paid."

Let me get this straight, a Trump organization donates money to another organization. Those organizations appreciate it and host events for more donations at a fucking golf course the Trump's own. Folks, this fake news is not even worthy of being commented on.

Because there is no excuse for this. When a Trump Davidian plays the fake news card, they know there is no way they can spin this.
