Oct 2016

The Clinton Foundation story has turned into the Trump Foundation story.

One is a charity which has saved untold lives in Africa and across the world. Pays it's founder and family zero too, btw.

The other is a scam foundation "charity" which pays all its family members a nice salary and engages in criminal acts - many of which have yet to come to light.

Repercussions now and way after the election. Even if somehow (dog forbid) Dump managed to win he's probably going to be spending a lot of time in court along with a couple of AG's and others. He's gonna love that.

Can't wait for Sunday debate!
