She is charging $2400 for people to meet her. Maybe she plans to donate the proceeds to helping Harvey victims.

^^ In fact I actually have the perfect place for her to donate to:

'Emergency' abortion fund established for Hurricane Harvey survivors

Can't properly defend Trump, drag out "But Clinton!"

That tells everyone you've shit the bed and that you're done here 🙂

What defense are you referring to, you can't make a hypothetical argument based on assumption, hyperbole and then expect me or anyone else to have to defend a fictional situation.

What are you exactly arguing here that needs to be defending by myself.

A hypothetical argument will get a factual response, show me where he donated money from the foundation. And if true, how is it any different then what CGI does. And why dont you slam CGI for doing the very same thing?

Am curious, for all the craps trump's getting, how much have being donated by any of you?

We have some real sore buttholes here right now. Better to not even ask. Remember like Sin said, if you gave money, you are shameful for saying you did so. But if you didn't give money and didn't say anything, you are right as rain.

"Sarah Sanders told reporters at the White House, saying the funds would come from the President's "personal money."

Anyone can see that the pro-Trump arguments in here where based on that narrative being true, "personal money". So let's hope it turns out to be true.

I don't think I said where he was giving it from his personal fortune or his foundation. I just posted a link saying he was giving $1,000,000. Even in my OP I said he pledged $1,000,000. I made no assumptions where or how it was happening. I dont think it matters, the dollars matter, not what account he uses. I doubt the people on the ground care either.

Also, says right here he can't use his foundation.

Probably when you said people can't criticize Trump unless they've personally given themselves. So can we stop playing games, it's clear the narrative was that Trump was doing this at the cost of his owm personal finances.

But it says right here he can't use the foundation. So this ends the false narrative that he is.

Then let's hope he writes that personal check, as was initially pushed 👆

But it won't matter if he does, the damage has already been done. The people who said he was doing this as a PR stunt already poisoned the well. I guess congratulations are in order for those who pushed that narrative.

Just to go over the time line.

First attempt at poisoning the well.

Facts: MSNBC Halley Jackson asked SHS would Trump donate., she did not give up voluntarrily this info.

Immediate liberal response: He's doing this for PR, he was boasting about it, and bragging about it.

Fact: Trump has never said anything about it personally, nor gave up the info until asked.

Second attempt at poisoning the well.

CNN tries to say he's using the foundation.

Fact: WP Writer David Farentold and Trump financial expert on his charitable giving says he can't.

You still haven't actually explained how this narrative was pushed in this thread since page one. All we have is a link to a story where the money being personal money is mentioned a total of one time by SHS.

Are we now saying that mentioning something one time equates to shoving a narrative down peoples throats? I just want to be clear, but feel free to get triggered over this.

On top of that, their stupidity is mind boggling when it comes to excuses used as to why it is a PR stunt. One of Trumps kid dared mention it...after it had already been talked about due to the media asking multiple times lol.

Maybe we should just put this type of thing behind us and get back to discussing important issues, like THE EVILNESS OF Mrs. Trump wearing Stiletto Pumps while visiting Houston! MY GAWD THE NERVE OF DAT BEEEYOUTUCFH!!!!!!!!!!

it's just a small loan of $1,000,000 though

Oh it is just a "Loan" now?

Anything his sons do in response to what the media did, has done, or is currently doing is treated as "Trumps kid did it first." Facts be damned.
