What's happening with Trump's million dollar donation? It's probably just another of his serial lies.

looks like 30% of it went to the Red Cross

 
Quote
A Houston city councilman is urging people not to donate to the Red Cross. In fact, councilman Dave Martin said he "beg(s) you not to send them a penny."

Now, my last rant will be on the Red Lost… I’m sorry the Red Cross. Because the Red Cross — if anybody wants to donate to the Red Cross, please call me. I beg you not to send them a penny. They are the most inept, unorganized organization that I’ve ever experienced. I’ve been in Kingwood fighting this thing and we have not seen one person — not a single person from the Red Lost, yet every time I turn on the TV they’re receiving multi, multi, hundreds of millions of dollars. What are you guys doing with it? How many contractors are you helping us with? So, to this day, many days after the hurricane hit, I have not seen a single person in Kingwood or Clear Lake that's a representative of the Red Cross. You know who opened our shelters? We did. You know who sent water and supplies? We did. People didn't have cots -- we got them blankets, we didn't get a darn thing from the Red Cross. So, if anyone wants to send them money, don’t waste your time, don’t waste your money. Send it to other causes.

all the money goes to the organization.

And none of the money goes to the victims of the Hurricanes.  Got it.  All the more reason not to donate to Hand In Hand.

Trumps Donate $1M to 12 Harvey Relief Charities
(AP)
Wednesday, 06 Sep 2017

President Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trump are donating $1 million to 12 charities involved in Harvey relief efforts.

The White House says the American Red Cross, Salvation Army, Samaritan's Purse and Reachout America will share $800,000 of the donation.

The Trumps are giving $25,000 each to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, Catholic Charities, Direct Relief, Habitat for Humanity, Houston Humane Society, Operation Blessing, Portlight Inclusive Disaster Strategies and Team Rubicon.

White House spokeswoman Lindsay Walters says the Trumps saw the work that some of these groups are doing during their trips to the region.

The White House first said last week that Trump wanted to make a donation and asked journalists for suggestions on where the president should direct his contributions.

Most of these are scams.  Don't send them one dime.

Doesn't the government provide all aide when it's a domestic disaster?  I could see donating to an organization that operates in a foreign country that the US is not involved with.  But domestic issues, they approve emergency funds.

Yeah I'm struggling to see the gap between emergency relief provided by government and property damage issues delt with by insurers where charities are indispensable.

Probably make you take a baptismal communion before they'll give you a bowl of cold gruel.

I hope the Trump's follow through on their pledge and prove me wrong.

You'd do well to actually read the article. Nowhere does it say he's actually donated (as in, it's happened) any of the money. If I say I am donating $1,000 to Habitat for Humanity, it doesn't mean I did it.

"No way Trump donates $1m of own money to Harvey victims. He only promises to give. Never actually does," said the author, whose book with Trump describes the president's work in real estate and famed reputation for deal-making.

"Never actually does"  Hm, hell of an author for that Hill article. This following is from the Washington Post on September 6.

"Last summer, after devastating floods in Baton Rouge, Trump gave a $100,000 donation to Greenwell Springs Baptist Church, which was helping residents in the affected area. That church's interim pastor at the time was Anthony Perkins, who is also president of the Family Research Council — a powerful and politically active Christian conservative group that condemns abortion, homosexuality and what it calls “transgenderism.” Perkins has been a strong political supporter of Trump's.

Since taking office, Trump has also made good on promises to donate his presidential salary. The first quarter's salary, $78,333, was given to the National Park Service for the maintenance of historic battlefields. His second quarter's salary was given to the Education Department to help fund a science camp."
