"The Post contacted 167 charities searching for evidence of personal gifts from Trump in the period between 2008 and May 2016. The Post sought out charities that had some link to Trump, either because he had given them his foundation's money, appeared at their charity galas or praised them publicly.
"The search turned up just one donation in that period — a 2009 gift of between $5,000 and $9,999 to the Police Athletic League of New York City.
"In all, when the $1 million gift to veterans is added to his giving through the Donald J. Trump Foundation, Trump has given at least $3.8 million to charity since 2001. That is a significant sum, although not among billionaires. For example, hedge fund titan Stanley Druckenmiller, just behind Trump on Forbes's rankings of net worth, gave $120 million to his foundation in 2013 alone."
- So what is Trump's contribution to the world if he pays no taxes, and his donations to charities are minimal at best. Same issues Steve Jobs was criticized for.omg
