I have covered Donald Trump off and on for 27 years including breaking the story that in 1990, when he claimed to be worth $3 billion but could not pay interest on loans coming due, his bankers put his net worth at minus $295 million. And so I have closely watched what Trump does and what government documents reveal about his conduct.
Reporters, competing Republican candidates, and voters would learn a lot about Trump if they asked for complete answers to these 21 questions.
Here are 21 Questions for Donald Trump:
So, Mr. Trump
1. You call yourself an ardent philanthropist, but have not donated a dollar to The Donald J. Trump Foundation since 2006. Youre not even the biggest donor to the foundation, having given about $3.7 million in the previous two decades while businesses associated with Vince McMahons World Wrestling Entertainment gave the Trump Foundation $5 million. All the money since 2006 has come from those doing business with you.
How does giving away other peoples money, in what could be seen as a kickback scheme, make you a philanthropist?
2. New York Attorney General Eric T. Schneiderman successfully sued you, alleging your Trump University was an illegal educational institution that charged up to $35,000 for Trump Elite mentorships promising personal advice from you, but you never showed up and your special list of lenders was photocopied from Scotsman Guide, a magazine found at any bookstore.
Why did you not show up?
