HaRRicH 05/20/18 11:24:20 PM #77: | Donald's complaining about Democrats moving on to other countries about his funding and support when it's been known for two years he was illegally soliciting funds from other countries. http://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/288031-trump-campaign-solicits-illegal-foreign-donations-despite-warnings This article calls out Australia and the United Kingdom during the summer of 2016, and a Washington Post article around then also said Mexico (of all places) was being pitched to too. I'm guessing there were more countries..... But none of that could have actually paid off, right? Well forgive me for making a jump based off the new Saudi news about Trump Tower, but here's a thing from one year ago today: 5/20/2017 TWITTER - Rebecca Ballhaus (Wall Street Journal reporter) Trump pilloried Clinton for such donations to the Clinton Foundation on the campaign trail *IN RESPONSE TO* Saudi Arabia and UAE pledge $100 million to Ivanka's Women Entrepreneurs Fund, per @carolelee: https://twitter.com/rebeccaballhaus/status/866145787750871040 It wasn't clear to me if that fund was truly run by Ivanka, but there's still an obvious connection there: they gave money because of a Trump. It was easy to laugh when Donald was floundering as a candidate and illegally begging other countries to chip in...but this may have been pretty public proof of payments as President. --- Nominate METAL MAN for 20XX! https://imgur.com/Dr4NAeq ...
