Was sitting behind my MAGA co-worker when the Trump Foundation news came on


I watched his body language as he knew I was watching too. Hard to explain but he clearly knew it looks HORRIBLE and that I was watching too. He shifted in his seat looking completely uncomfortable. I just could not resist and finally said, "Gosh, and the Clinton Foundation is still going strong after all those investigations with an A rating at charity watch. Quite the week for Trump adding this onto all the impeachment stuff. LOL!"

He clapped back that the Clintons were still corrupt but I could tell it totally got under his skin!

Charity watch doesn't even cover the Trump foundation but here is Charity Navigator

Is it still going on? Were the exonerated or do they just "not announce" if no charges will be brought (unless Comey is involved).

I just want it for Facebook. The trolls love bringing up the foundation. :/

That applies to Democrats generally, and to the Clintons quite specifically.

Your co-worker might even start pretending he doesn’t know Trump. After all isn’t that what Trump does?

This is starting to go fucking deep into his base at least to some extent.

I don’t know any MAGATs, mostly because I’m pretty much a hermit, so these stories are precious!
