Leonardo DiCaprio donates $1 million to Hurricane Harvey relief efforts

That's actually pretty hilarious.

No wonder you guys feel the way you do about Trump - you're in a near constant state of denial.

Trump had to essentially be shamed into handing over the money he got from the big "fundraiser" for vets, that he held when he skipped out on one of the debates. Typical of Trump - another "Trump Steaks" moment.

A doubt very much that this is true. Any evidence? Perhaps it it you who are in a state of denial.
 
After Intense Scrutiny, Trump Finally Gives Veterans The Money He Promised

In January, Donald Trump claimed a stunt fundraising event he hosted raised $6 million for veterans. He said he personally contributed $1 million of his self-proclaimed $8.7 billion fortune toward that total.

But a Wall Street Journal report published roughly three months after the fundraiser found the promised beneficiaries had apparently received just a “fraction of the promised money.” In recent days, reporters started pressing the Trump campaign for more details. When specifics weren’t forthcoming, a Washington Post reporter used Twitter to investigate whether any veterans groups had posted about receiving the money Trump purportedly raised. They found nothing.

The Post reports that on Monday, Trump called the home of James K. Kallstrom, chairman of the Marine Corps-Law Enforcement Foundation, and informed him he would be giving $1 million to his organization. It remains unclear whether any other veterans organization has received a donation stemming from Trump’s fundraiser since the Journal’s report was published, though the Post reports that the founder of Boston’s annual Wounded Vet Bike Run received a call from the Trump campaign on Tuesday, which suggests more donations could be forthcoming.

Trump’s excuse for the months-long delay? “You have a lot of vetting to do,” he told reporters on Tuesday, according to the Post. But that rationale is drawn into question by the fact the Donald J. Trump Foundation had previously contributed to the Marine Corps-Law Enforcement Foundation.

On Twitter, Trump has tried to spin the story as an example of how he’s not treated fairly by the media.

This isn't a debate, stupid fuck. It IS your responsibility to inform yourself before you humiliate yourself. You have failed miserably on informing end and are a complete success at humiliating yourself.

Dismissed, willful ignoramus.

Buckley just did your homework for you and further demonstrated your willful ignorance..

No, bitch, when it comes to you, it doesn't reach the level of debate. You're too fucking stupid and lazy to debate anything.

Put a fork in yourself, Jethro. You were done before you started.

Hardly. I see where Freedumb has to truncate and therefore post a lie in a lame attempt to defend Orangetweet.

My post was in response to a comment that Trump would QUIETLY make a donation. He craves the attention and praise and will never do ANYTHING quietly if it means that kind of attention. That's clear, but something you Trump dicksuckers wish to deny.

Now, the second part. I don't recall any of these celebrities promising a pledge that didn't occur until they were outed for reneging on it. The Orange Clown did just that with the veterans.

Go ahead and trust a pathological liar, you fucking naive morons. I saw him for the liar that he is from the getgo.

Don't talk so stupid..you're head has been up your ass from the getgo....
..the Trumps can't do anything quietly.....
Melania can't wear high heels to get on Air Force One and, Trump can't get 2 scoops of ice cream without the insane left wing media making a federal case out of it......and idiots like you harping online about nonsense trying to get something to impeach him on.....

Maybe Hillary and Obama will be shamed enough to donate some of their personal fortunes to help the flood victims....

the spotlight will make it impossible to not give.........the PGA and some golfers have donated .....good for them....

So, according to Think Progress, Trump made good on his promise. That's awesome.

Orangetweet needs two "your so great" files delivered to him every day. Even on the Texas flood, he has to comment on the size of the crowd. He needs that dysfunctional ego stroked continuously.

I don't give a fuck about the whore's shoes or Orangetweet's ice cream. What you Trump dicksuckers DON'T care about is is pathological lying. He lied about the first pledge and idiots like you will trust him on the second.

Fuck you, you delusional bastard. And fuck your incompetent hero, Orangetweet
