Despite asking for money, Trump denies event is a fundraiser

Source: CNN

Norwood, Massachusetts (CNN)Donald Trump said at an event charging $100-a-head in Massachusetts for his campaign Friday that he was not attending a fundraiser.

"This is not a fundraiser," Trump told reporters in Norwood. "I turn down a lot of money."

But earlier Friday, a sign outside the event directed donors on how to contribute.

"Please have checks made payable to: Donald J. Trump for President, Inc. or cash ready on entry. Thank you," read the sign, which was later taken down after Trump's campaign manager, Corey Lewandowski, saw a CNN report.

Although the sign was taken down, several smaller signs depicting the same message remained at the check-in booth.

Of course, despite yet another blatant lie, the Joe Scarborough and Mark Halperin type of beltway hacks will continue to hail the Birther King as a "Straight shootin' tell-it-like-is truthsayer"

to be embarrassed, considering the fact that he gets up and makes an ass of himself all over again every day, but some things are going to come out about his finances that he isn't going to like. He'll find several people to sue, I'm sure, but that won't give him back his celebrity.

I'll bet this is costing him a LOT more than he expected.
Fear not Donald! There is always another bankruptcy to save you.
