this is only more of the same.
Didn't say that. If he's so against her, why did he donate in the first place?

So you were attempting to compare apples to oranges...
The fact of the matter is that he did not donate to the CF personally, his foundation donated to her foundation. He was unaware of it at the time (2009) - I could be wrong but I think Trump was still a Democrat at the time, he didn’t change to republican until September of that year. It was probably done as a pay for play, that’s what her foundation was all about anyway. And he was a New York businessman, not the political hack that Bill and Hillary were. Either way it has nothing to do with what I said about Omar.
He was unaware that his own foundation donated $100,000 to the Clinton Foundation?? Would ANY chairman of ANY foundation let $100,000 be donated without their approval? If so, it's a poorly run foundation.

We’re talking about billion dollar foundations. $100k is like a dollar to you and me. You never not knew where one or your dollars went?
Correction----less than $20 million dollars in the foundation from 2001 to 2015.

The Clinton Foundation raised and estimated $2 billion from U.S. corporations, foreign governments and corporations, political donors, and various other groups and individuals. The acceptance of funds from wealthy donors has been a source of controversy.
Was referring to the Trump Foundation.

Whichever.... doesn’t change anything, and you’re diverting from your original comment in response to Bin Laden’s donation to a terrorist organization, to which Omar associated with.
I responded the Clinton Foundation was not a terrorist organization.
Guilt by association doesn't count, remember? That's what most Trump supporters are saying these days. And neither of those groups were officially called terrorist organizations until 2014.

We should not be surprised at all.
First off, Trump’s no longer hiding his r****m. I don’t think anyone can conclude that he’s anything other than a W***e S*********t after this particular episode. It’s been questionable (although not to my mind), and his supporters in the GOP have been able to deny it. That ship has now officially sailed.
Suggesting that US-born citizens should “go back where they came from” to fix the problems of their native country is particularly funny from where I’m sitting: after all, the biggest problem in their native country at the moment is Donald Trump, and the views he is espousing. The irony there is hilarious.
If we’re talking about ancestral immigration, it’s worth noting that Trump’s own mother was born in Scotland, rather than the US, and his paternal grandfather was German. His own roots as an American don’t run all that deep, so for him to suggest that others are somehow not American for having similar ancestry is pretty hilarious.
Perhaps we should look into Melania’s heritage, while we’re at it? She’s not an American by birth either, and she entered the US on a visa that doesn’t really describe her: she entered on an EB-1 visa, designed for “priority workers with extraordinary abilities”. She doesn’t qualify in the least bit.
The slow speed at which the Republican Party have responded to Trump’s offensive remarks make it clear that they condone the r****m in question, and aren’t the least bit interested in holding the President accountable. That, ladies and gentlemen, show how far the United States has fallen in this regard - no longer can we consider a President as being held to the highest standards. Now we simply have to try to avoid tripping over a bar set to the lowest.

Nice fairy tale, hypocritical, but nice.
A pair of bigoted, anti-Semitic, pro-Sharia Muslims, one of them an immigrant, are stellar examples of American citizens, and any suggestion that they return to Islam is an egregious act of r****m.
However the citizenship status of a young woman immigrant who is decidedly pro-American must be scrutinized with an eye on sending her back where she came from because she happened to marry Donald Trump.
Alicia Watkins, a former Air Force staff sergeant who survived the 9/11 attack on the Pentagon and served in Iraq and Afghanistan, was at the press conference as a freelance writer working on an article about jobs for veterans.
Trump hired her on the spot.
President Donald Trump shakes hands with Issac Newton Farris Jr., a nephew of Martin Luther King Jr. after signing a proclamation to honor King.
