The media is finally doing its job with this clown. I hope they turn up the heat. Simply reporting all of the persistent lying, bragging, sneering, and just plain invincible ignorance should be enough to sink this idiot. But perhaps the voters are so clueless that they will continue to overlook this man’s bad character, puny intellect, ignorance, narcissism, and bluster. We can only hope.
(re-posted #15 post due to typo error in years of Hillary’s reported giving to Veteran orgs)-Hillary’s campaign people started the Media on this new fake trail against Trump….set up disgruntled and likely Democrat supporting military to protest and bad-mouth Hillary’s opposition candidate. It was a false attack, because the money raised from Trump’s Jan. 28, 2016 fundraiser reached $5.6 million and is still growing, donations for US Veterans!-Trump was not trying to take public credit, and he is paying for the vetting process to verify Vet Organizations to receive money. No “overhead expenses”……and for his generosity is attacked by Hillary and Democrats and the Democrat-leaning MSM.-A news item on the internet today shows that in 5 years, 2009 through 2014, the Clintons gave a total of $70,000 to various Vet groups. Then their charity giving disappeared into the Clinton Foundation with no disclosure as to who and how much. (Hillary prefers to get credit for “government policies” that force taxpayer money to aid Veterans, not for her personal contributions of cash).-(990 tax filings- 2009 gave $25,000, 2010 gave $20,000;2011 gave $5,000. 2012 $15,000 and 2014 gave $5,000=total $70,000 in 5 years) source 6/1/16 article by Charlie Spiering, who compared that to this 2016 Trump fund-raising and giving to a list of 41 Vet Orgs of $5.6 million)
So we make up another lie to cover the lie that he donated. He donated 1/6th of the proceeds after the press found that he donated zero of the proceeds. He blustered against the press when it has been proven that he never intended to pay a cent to the veterans, instead using them to escape that mean old debate moderator.
Narcissus was egalitarian and modest in the extreme compared to Trump. The lies, the three wives, the bankuptcies and failed business projects all point to a candidate far less qualifed to lead a Boy Scout troop, let alone a country, than Alfred E. Newman.
So, are we sure he wrote a check and didn’t just donate his favorite thing, free golf games for legless men?Just kidding, of course. I know he spent four months vetting a vet’s organization he’s been associated with for years.
Drumpf cut half the checks on the same date that the AP story broke that he isn’t giving money to the charities. He wasn’t smart enough to back date the checks.
it is interesting that Martens et al want to change this cartoon’s issue about Media lies about Trump’s $5.6 million fundraising for Veterans, to personal character flaws.-OK if you want to debate Hillary’s personal flaws and/or Bernie’s personal flaws…..I know more about her flaws, having paid attention since Bill’s first campaign for Prez;and I know little about Bernie’s flaws, only that he is a lifelong Marxist and took his bride to Moscow for the honeymoon, which for me is a 100% turnoff.-I am not alone in refusing to vote for Democrats with their usual libertine party platforms and their records in public office, and 2016 is no different. I would vote for a robot before I would vote for a Democrat. I do not approve or like the apparent GOP primary winner, but Trump cannot within the realm of possibility be worse than the USUAL Big Government, Big Tax Democrat that is on the ballot!-I pray that God restrains the evil in whoever becomes US president in January 2017. I want Liberty and freedom restored to citizens in choices for families to not be prosecuted and persecuted by government for living and acting out Biblical beliefs, such as that SIN is not supposed to be made legal and normal.-Congress needs to create new laws to protect our people from social engineering and bringing in hostiles that will never obey laws on our US books, but will try to replace Judeo-Christian based Law with Sharia which has no personal freedom and is bloodthirsty in operation.-Executive Orders should be prohibited from replacing laws on the books. Our new US LAWS should only come from agreement in the US Congress and signed by the US President in obedience to our Constitution.-
I don’t know why Trump would be upset with the media over the veterans’ groups. He has much more reason to be upset about the media portraying him as a shallow demagogue. He deserves an opportunity to show why a religious test for immigration is constitutional; why killing the families of terrorists is not murder; why a nuclear-armed Japan is wise; why promoting political violence in followers is democratic; and so on. The mainstream media never gives him follow-up questions that would show the depth of his positions. In this area, we may all decry the media’s unsatisfactory performance.

Seriously, in 240 years, shouldn’t we have raised the bar on presidential (also congressional and fourth estate) qualifications?

“Trump was not trying to take public credit,”
The entire thing with the veterans was specifically for Trump to take public credit.
There is nothing to prevent Trump from sending as many checks, PRIVATELY, to veterans or any other charity.
Next, you should explain to everyone about Trump’s family values.

BTW, Trump never sent money to any vets’ charities until AFTER he was being investigated.
It was, you know, SO UNFAIR, to check what happened to the money he claimed to have already delivered.So unfair.

Yes, how dare they shame him into keeping his word? When he’s president, he’ll never have to live up to another promise!
