Does Trump? Yes. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/trump-boasts-of-his-philanthropy-but-his-giving-falls-short-of-his-words/2016/10/29/b3c03106-9ac7-11e6-a0ed-ab0774c1eaa5_story.html Then, all of a sudden, there was Donald Trump. https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/politics/2016-election/trump-charity-donations/ For months, The Washington Post has been looking for evidence to back up a key claim Donald Trump makes about himself: that, in recent years, he has given millions of dollars to charity out of his own pocket. There is no evidence of that in the files of Trump's nonprofit, the Donald J. Trump Foundation. And Trump has not released his tax returns, which would detail his recent charitable giving. --- kin to all that throbs ... Copied to Clipboard!

But The Post has been unable to verify that he followed through on any of them. @UnholyMudcrab said Trump has a history of not following through with donation promises. @Antifar tried to back that up with a WaPo story about how they "didn't confirm" any donation, which is clearly not a case of Trump not following through with a donation because we have no idea how intensely WaPo tried to track down these donations. Maybe you should try to follow a conversation's progression before making yourself look like a fool, @mario2000 And in all likelihood they didn't, since they have a clear agenda against Trump. Look at the tagline under their title: they claim Democracy "died in darkness" after an election that used the same rules that every election had for the past 200 years. WaPo earned the title "fake news". --- The person who writes for fools is always sure of a large audience. Friend Code: 2723-9696-7248 ... Copied to Clipboard!

Trump has a history of promising donations to causes, not actually committing to his word, and only doing so after being confronted by reporters. WaPo is merely the more credible side on this issue, not Trump. Go ahead and hold your breath until some entity confirms receiving a check from Trump.

Not really political, nor do I really affiliate with any political party, but good for him. Donating money, especially that much, is awesome thing for a person to do.

After calling 420-plus charities with some connection to Trump, The Post found only one personal gift from Trump between 2008 and the spring of this year.

It's a nice gesture if it actually materializes given his track record on donations (like the VA donation that he had to be pressured into actually making after he said he did, but if that's any indication it's gonna be four months late), but it hardly makes up for him wanting to cut FEMA funding down the line.

I can't even believe I'm sitting here in my hometown and using the term national disaster in the same breath, but it's true. I find nothing wrong with his donation.

Imagine a world where someone can donate a million dollars they accrued in their life to give to others who are dying/losing homes/ have their lifes turned upside down... and people complaining about it.
Like, it truly is just amazing that someone could bash something like this. It is basically like, to those bashing him, he should have just not donated anything at all because he is being put down for helping. Whether he gave a dollar; a million, or a billion, he did not have to give anything and still did. I am sure the actual victims of the disaster are thankful for any donation, no matter how small or large, despite those sitting in their comfy homes sitting their criticizing some who chose to give to help them. --- LoL ID = imajericho XBL GT = Corrik ...
