I really hope they give this at least as much attention as they gave the Clinton Foundation. Not holding my breath.

gave the foundation $500,000? Never gave before or after......just the one time from 2001 to 2014. That's the only years I have to review.

FYI Eric has his own foundation and papa's foundation gave him 50,000 in 2008...........all in the family!

Appears that the NBC donation involved the Apprentice TV show, perhaps to cover promised gifts Trump made on the show?

In 2011 Comedy Central gave the Trump Foundation $400,000 to appear in their Roast of Donald Trump
