He's been soliciting for quite a while now.

That's the thing about entering the political arena, causes all sorts of things to be looked into.

Trump is just bringing more and more scrutiny to his own illegal/shady dealings. The difference is they make him "smart" and Clinton being accused and not actually breaking the law makes her "crooked" in his eyes and the eyes of his supporters. RE: Trump Foundation lacks required certification to solicit money - Belsnickel - 12-25-2016 I'm not sure if anyone else has been seeing this, but Trump announced the dissolution of the Trump Foundation. The issue is, though, that the NY AG says that can't happen until the investigation is completed. http://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/news/311773-ny-ag-trump-cannot-legally-dissolve-foundation-until An interesting turn of events. I had also seen in another article about the foundation how the McMahons had been one of the major donors over the past 8 years while Trump wasn't using his own money. Makes the appointment of Linda McMahon appear to be a pay-to-play scenario, much like Trump and his supporters were bashing the Clintons for.

My wife told me this morning as we were making our breakfasts and I told her they couldn't collect anyway. It doesn't matter to anyone though Matt. They buy everything he says and the rest is "fake news". |
