Trump is winning (money) by losing

In March, Trump charged his campaign $35,458 per month in rent according to filings with the FEC. In July, he increased the charge to $169,758 per month, even though he had fewer staff members (and therefore less need for space). What was the difference? In March, he paid his own rent. In July, his donors paid the rent for him. --Bob

Meanwhile the Clintons donate $1,000,000 to their own charity, claim a tax deduction, and you turn a blind eye.

Because they don't benefit financially from the donation (other than via the same tax deduction anyone else would be entitled to for any charitable donation). So I really don't see how they're subject to criticism for donating to charity more in one year than most people will earn in their lifetimes. Or than Trump has donated in his life. --Bob

So does Bill Gates.

Do you have a problem with him donating his own money to the Gates Foundation?

Here in Arizona, the big scandal is that Saudi Arabia gave $1 million to the McCain Institute. Despite his statements that he has nothing to do with it, that they are just using his name, the facts tell another story:
