Some Dude Named Garrett Haake On MSNBC Just Made A Funny

He said something about not seeing any Trump family members volunteering at food banks.

I cracked up.

Trumps volunteering, and helping anyone for no reason? Just because it would be the right thing to do? Really.

Hilarious.

Anyone else catch that?

There is a court order that, because of their history of skimming money from charities, they not be involved in charitable work.

Of course they can volunteer to stack cans of food and distribute bags of groceries. The restrictions apply to their being on the boards of nonprofits.
The order concerns their mismanagement and self-dealing and would not affect their ability to help out and do any of the menial tasks that have to get done.
