If I was a billionaire, I'd donate to a lot of stuff like Wounded Warrior Project, Operation Smile, Homes For Our Troops, No Kid Hungry, Wildlife Conservation Society, The Humane Society of the United States, Marine Toys for Tots Foundation, Farm Aid, Alzheimer's Association, St. Jude Children's Hospital and many others. I certainly wouldn't give it directly to the government.
Trump is a bum. This idiot is the guy I guarantee you needs people to read him information like 10 times in different ways. He's truly an imbecile in every sense of the word. I literally question the intelligence of his supporters and I don't mean that as an insult but as curiosity. He's the guy they will make a movie about years from now mocking him as we all wonder how he made it to office.

Stroud left in the dust. Per usual.
Guy donates his check and kooks somehow find a way that is a bad thing. TDS is real folks.

Why do you have to be a billionaire to donate to those causes?

I have no issue with him donating. It's actually great that he does.
The issue I have is the "Hey look at me! I did this and people need to know about it!"
I mean he even tweeted "
While the press doesn’t like writing about it, nor do I need them to"
If you don't need the media to talk about it, why are you blasting it out to millions of people?

You can bet the guy who said his favorite part of the Bible was "two Corinthians" hasn't read Matthew 6:1-4.

So Trump hasn't donated to St. Jude, a charity his son Eric has also donated millions of dollars and thousands of hours to his time to?
You people literally have no clue what you are talking about.

What makes you think he doesn't give to charities outside of donating his paycheck? Pretty sure there was a story not long ago that has an itemized account of the over $100 million he has donated in the last few years. You know, people would be [BLEEP] if he kept his paycheck. He can't win for losing.
Not keen on telling someone how to give away their money but check your list...

Tell us what you really think Occupy Democrats really thinks.
Anyone watching and listening to Trump talk can tell he's not the sharpest tool in the shed, if not maybe they should quit listening to what Pravda...err...Fox News tells them.

Because a segment of tools would whine if a billionaire received one! Oh wait, we need his tax returns to make sure he isn't just a millionaire.
What was the point of this publicized refusal of paychecks? Would be curious to see proof that they actually followed through.

well there was that time when he gave money to his charitable foundation to have his charitable foundation buy a portrait of him to hang at his golf club...
not many of us have enough balls to try to use the charitable tax donation to commission portraits of ourselves with pre-tax dollars...

Not exactly how it went but yeah cool. We've touched on the defunct and fined foundation, along with the $10k portrait. Where does the $100+ million of personal charitable contributions go or have gone to?

Because now, I live paycheck to paycheck and don't even have enough for a savings account. I'd love to give more money to charity. I do give to Marines Toys for Tots every year, (whether I have the money or not.) It makes me feel good to do it, but I really wish I could afford to give to a lot more charities. If I ever do get a bunch of money, I'd give most of it away. I pretty much have everything I need now. I don't need or want a big house or fancy cars or "bling bling". I'm a self described "redneck" with pretty simple taste. As long as I got a house, fishing boat and a pickup truck, I'm happy. I'd rather use money to make the world a better place.

Or Matthew 19:24
