As someone who spent the last 40 years raising funds for legitimate non-profit organizations, anytime any person, corporation, or private foundation made a substantial donation to the organization ($1,000-ish or up), they required us to send them a copy of the letter from the IRS confirming that we were permitted to receive charitable donations. The person who makes such donations to organizations claiming to be charitable organizations needs to verify–I don’t think the IRS will accept “I didn’t know and didn’t bother to find out” as an excuse.
Why is a Trump campaign spokesman saying “we” about the Trump Foundation? Aren’t the campaign and the foundation two separate entities? And if it turns out that they’re not, isn’t that yet another thing Trump could get in trouble over?
I’m pretty sure everybody in the Trump Organization thinks of the campaign as a wholly-owned subsidiary. Nobody in that crew ever passed a corporate ethics course.
Dude clearly has no fucking idea whatsoever what a blind trust is.
“Trust me” he says. No. No we don’t, you little fucking weasel.
The Junior is the same guy who, when asked what his Dad would be doing while VP Kasich took care of both foreign and domestic policy, replied “Making America great again.”
I think that this Junior is the same guy who said he always has a thousand rounds of ammunition in his car at all times.
Tomorrow is the deadline! Will the Trump Foundation:
- Launch a lawsuit against the NY AGs office?
- Produce full, audited records?
- Do nothing, being declared a fraudulent organization?
- Comply with the barest minimum of shit?
- Refund everybody?
- Other?
other - ask for a continuance.
3 and claim he did 2. Then blame Hillary when nobody but his voter base believes him.
Is that a thing? If they are, are continuances routinely asked for and granted?
According to David Farenthold, they can file for an extension.
And it’s been granted.
