Trump Pays $2 Million to 8 Charities for Misuse of Foundation

Under a settlement, the president admitted he had used his charity to bolster his campaign and settle business debts.

...........................

The payments were part of a settlement announced last month that capped a drawn-out legal battle. In the end, the president admitted in court documents that he had used the foundation to settle legal obligations of his businesses and even to purchase a portrait of himself.

...................
The president wired payments directly to the organizations a few weeks ago, but the payments were not made public until this week, an official in the attorney’s office said......................

...........

The nonprofit groups that received payments were the Army Emergency Relief, the Children’s Aid Society, Citymeals on Wheels, Give an Hour, Martha’s Table, the United Negro College Fund, the United Way of the National Capital Area, and the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum. Each received a total of $476,140.01.

.......

..........
In a mid-November filing, the attorney general’s office requested that the judge, Justice Saliann Scarpulla of State Supreme Court in Manhattan, order Mr. Trump not to write off the payments as charitable contributions in his tax filings, but the judge did not do so.

As part of the settlement, Mr. Trump, who at first dismissed the suit as a political attack, made 19 detailed admissions, acknowledging, for example, that the foundation had purchased the $10,000 portrait of himself that was ultimately displayed at one of his Florida hotels.

.......................

.....................




..............................
As part of the settlement, Mr. Trump’s three children who were officers of the foundation — Eric Trump, Donald Trump Jr. and Ivanka Trump — were ordered to undergo mandatory training to ensure they do not engage in similar misconduct in the future.

On Tuesday, the attorney general’s office confirmed the children had undergone the training.

Trump admitted that his "university" was a sham and he paid $25 million to settle the case.

Trump admitted that his "charity" was a sham and he paid $2 million to settle the case.

But Trump was chosen by god.

Got it.
