Largest gift of Trump Foundation

New findings, for instance, show that the Trump Foundation’s largest-ever gift — $264,631 — was used to renovate a fountain outside the windows of Trump’s Plaza Hotel.

Smallest gift of Trump Foundation

Its smallest-ever gift, for $7, was paid to the Boy Scouts in 1989, at a time when it cost $7 to register a new Scout. Trump’s oldest son was 11 at the time. Trump did not respond to a question about whether the money was paid to register him.

Why so important...? Was it simple to find these gifts of the foundation? NO..someone had to do extensive research on the foundation...very extensive. So perhaps it was easy to find the $264,631 ..gift to renovate the fountain..but it was probably difficult to discover the $7.00 gift to register a new Scout.. In either case, the research is obviously honest and thorough enough for people to understand the meaning.

These contributions were not for some charity but for Trump's own selfish use. Everyone will understand this. Trump cannot change this. He broke the law. Couldn't happen to a bigger asshole...I hope he has to go to court on this. I hope he is convicted on this.
