Has trump ever had any military funraisers BEFORE he ran for pres?


with all his bragging and blather about how much money he's worth, I don't recall any altruistic military member fundraising before he threw his toupee into the ring. Not saying it did not happen, but I've never seen anything.

Any evidence he did prior to running?
