For one thing, nearly all of its money comes from people other than Trump. In tax records, the last gift from Trump was in 2008. Since then, all of the donations have been other peoples money an arrangement that experts say is almost unheard of for a family foundation.
Trump then takes that money and generally does with it as he pleases. In many cases, he passes it on to other charities, which often are under the impression that it is Trumps own money.
In two cases, he has used money from his charity to buy himself a gift. In one of those cases not previously reported Trump spent $20,000 of money earmarked for charitable purposes to buy a six-foot-tall painting of himself.
