According to a bombshell report from the Washington Post, Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump not only doesnt contribute any of his own money to his charity The Trump Foundation, he also used $20,000 of donor money to buy a six-foot painting of himself.

But, the charity paid 20 grand and it sits at Mar-a-Lago where all his visitors can bow down. And write a check.
There are really people out there who think this asshole is a better choice than Hillary?

Farenthold is the Washington Post reporter that has been sussing out Cheeto Jesus' shameful lies about charitable giving. He's in a desperate search to find the actual painting in question. Hilariously, there are bunches of hoooge paintings owned by Orange One.

(51,076 posts)what a rip off. Spend the charity's money on a painting of someone but not of tRump. Maybe in his dreams but not in real life
He never has nor ever will look like the person in that painting, sorry el'dumbass but if you paid for that you got ripped off
