Clinton’s Camp Reacts

Clinton’s deputy communications director, Christina Reynolds, put out a statement after The Washington Post story was published, calling Trump a fraud.

“Clearly the Trump Foundation is as much a charitable organization as Trump University is an institute of higher education,” she said.

“Trump’s version of charity is taking money from others to settle his own legal issues ... which experts say is a clear violation of laws governing charitable organizations,” Reynolds said.

Daddy passed it down to Don the Con, who probably passed those values down to his children. See? Perfectly acceptable.

Will New York's AG or the Justice Department move fast enough to turn this into a major inquiry or better, issue some indictments well before the election?

We can only hope so!

I'd love to see Donnieboy squirm in front of the press trying to explain it all away. Better yet, having HRC pound him in debate #2 or #3....given the coward shows up after Hillary pound him into oblivion during the first debate!
