Your misunderstanding is a result of allowing the authority of Google search engine to tailor the results to show a biased and in this case misleading idea that the Prez did something illegal or âiffyâ.
Had you gone past the first 4 pages of results, an interesting fact appears: He was helping a veteranâs charity, and instead got fined in the âhate Trumpâ circus weâve gotten used to.
"In reality, this lawsuit was setoff by the following series of events
- Ahead of the 2016 Iowa caucus, candidate Trump held a fundraiser. The fundraiser raised $2.8 million, which was all given to veterans charities.
- The funds were raised through the Trump Foundation, but campaign staff managed the fundraiser and distributed the funds to charities.
- Liberals decided that these funds counted as campaign contributions (zero percent of which went to the Trump campaign), and a judge agreed helped âfurther Mr. Trumpâs political campaign.â
One hundred percent of the money raised went to charity, and the Trump campaigned covered the entire cost of administering distribution of the funds. But because giving millions of dollars to veterans tends to be good PR for a presidential candidate, a judge decided that this helped further the Trump campaign.
So for his efforts to help veterans, Trump was rewarded with a $2 million fine and the billionth bogus media narrative to plague his presidency.
Maybe one day the media will discover what the Clinton Foundation is.
What do you say to that, Don?
