http://newcenturytimes.com/2016/09/21/scam-watch-trump-sent-half-a-million-in-gop-donations-to-trump-companies/Despite claiming to be a billionaire nine times over, Donald Trumps actions as the Republican presidential nominee show a continuation of his decades-long behavior pattern of scrounging up as much money as possible in unethical, if not illegal, ways.
The most recent manifestation of Trumps lust for cash is the way in which he has directed money donated by supporters who want him to win the election right back into his own pocket. Trump does this by setting up the various Trump organizations and entities as vendors for the Trump campaign, shuffling money around from one pocket to the other. In recently filed campaign finance documents, Trump is up to his old tricks again....
The chief beneficiaries were Trumps aviation company and his office headquarters in Manhattan: TAG Air was paid nearly $320,000 for operating the campaign jet and Trump Tower collected nearly $170,000 in rent for the month of August. Another $23,000 went to smaller Trump properties and businesses....
What Trump has been most passionate about in the campaign isnt really making America great again, but doing what he can to fatten his own bank account.
