This is not good news for Trump. The Attorney Generals statement; "This is a shocking pattern of illegality involving the Trump Foundation including unlawful coordination with the Trump presidential campaign, repeated and willful self-dealing and much more. This amounted to the Trump Foundation functioning as little more than a checkbook to serve Mr. Trump's business and political interests." Trump Foundation agrees to dissolve under court supervision https://www.cnn.com/2018/12/18/politics/trump-foundation-dissolve/index.html The Donald J. Trump Foundation has agreed to dissolve under judicial supervision amid an ongoing lawsuit concerning its finances, according to a document filed Tuesday in Manhattan Supreme Court by the New York state Attorney General's office. The dissolution of President Donald Trump's charity resolves one element of the attorney general's civil lawsuit against the foundation, which includes claims that the President and his children violated campaign finance laws and abused its tax-exempt status. The lawsuit will continue in court because it also seeks two other outcomes: $2.8 million in restitution, plus penalties, and a ban on Trump and his three eldest children serving on the board of any other New York nonprofit.
It's funny how Trump's known abuse of a foundation sounds just like what the Clintons have long been accused of without basis.
'whataboutisms' aren't going to work from this day forward, so deal with it. Your boy is corrupt and nothing more than a racketeering thug mob boss from NY.
You're right I did misconstrue your intention. I figured you were finger pointing to HRC which is a deflection of Trump supporters of course. But this time, oh yeah....they can't explain this away. The 'Foundation' had no real board of directors and never paid a single cent to any charitable cause. But that's not a surprise, Trump never let go of a red cent for anything charitable, his main objective was how to get richer. 'Greed not need'.
The trumpettes have conditioned us all to expect But Hillary! reponses by now. Can't read about Trump's criminality without Hillary coming to mind in that way. It won't be pretty when those who believed in Trump turn on him. They're a wrathful bunch.
Truthfully, in the beginning that was a concern, that they are indeed a wrathful, angry and even dangerous bunch. But over the past months as more and more evidence of scheming and treachery against the U.S. institutions like the FBI and Justice Dept. I'm more pissed than ever before. So if they want to bring their trouble and anger then they're going to be met with even more of the same from those who know Trump is a criminal in every sense of the word.
As I wrote in a different thread, trump owes everything to Putin. Had Putin not put him in the White House he would probably have stayed beneath the radar.
I suppose, though putting himself out there as a candidate must have carried significant risk by itself.
Well I hope those Leftists are happy. Thanks to their trumped-up charges one of the United States' great charities (started by one of the greatest philanthropists of this, or any other, age) has been forced to close its doors denying the millions and millions of people who have benefited from its largesse any future help....... or something
But this is why their will likely be violence You guys are admittantly being hypocritical. How do you expect people to not think you are completely lying? You literally just did it right here, except you said "no no no, ignore anything other than Trump because he is all that matters" He is not, I know he is to you Progressives and to the MSM, but you guys will not be happy with the violence you ensue by this hypocritical avoidance of being truthful It's shameful, I just hope too many people aren't killed when it happens.
But of course, don't ever bring up the Clinton foundation or anyone other than Trump .... Like the OP has said, "this isn't about "whataboutism"" which is obviously an NPC defense to ignore anyone other than Trump And they wonder why they are fomenting certain violence?
The court ruled it was little more than a slush fund that Dirty Donald used to pay personal fines and expenditures out of.A complete SCAM.Neither he nor Iwanker,Don Jr.or Eric can ever sit on the board of any New York charitable foundation, as this was SUPPOSED to be, in the future.
Was the Clinton foundation the topic of the thread? Can’t complain about a topic creator trying to stay on topic. With that being said, what are you talking about?
The Dirty Donald Foundation will be required to make $2.8 Million in fines and restitution for the illegal campaign contributions they made from the foundation to his campaign.
Additional details are emerging regarding the inner workings of the Trump Foundation. Apparently the Trump attorney Allen Weisselberg is listed as one of the CFO's of the Trump Foundation but apparently he had no idea he was. The only board members are Trump's children. The largest donors to the Trump Foundation are the McMahon's, Vince and Linda. They donated $6 million to the campaign super PAC for Trump's campaign. Linda McMahon gave another $5 million to the Trump Foundation. Linda McMahon was appointed for Trump's cabinet as Small Business Administrator. (what a coincidence) Some of the money from the Trump foundation was spent on artwork and other personal effects. $25,000 of Trump Foundation money was given to Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi's election campaign and just days later the Florida AG dropped the lawsuit against Trump University. (what a coincidence) The contribution was made to Pam Bondi's campaign under a phony similar name. It was a name that was similar but it was an unrelated charity in Kansas. There are multiple tax fraud indications. The NY AG has referred some of these incidences for criminal investigation for tax fraud.
In the APE kingdom, power and responsibility kills too. So, the DRIVEN individuals seek power and control, EVEN though they almost NEVER die of old age. They die of CORPORATE diseases, just like us humans. And, the driven individuals cant help themselves, JUST like us humans.
The audits of the Clinton foundation, get PLAUDITS. They are top of their field, top of their game, and give a YUGE percentage to ACTUAL help, little to ADMINISTRATION.
That Trump, has SAID, can you imagine how much trouble I would be in if I ever ran for Pres? They would roast me alive, he said. THEN, he goes and runs for pres.
