Trump Defunds Planned Parenthood (48)

Yeah, He'll use the money to build the wall.

No, he can't do that.
He can only use the extra Military construction funds.

"Goody goody"? You think it's a good thing that poor women won't have access to the pre natal and other Health Care that they need? How heartless can you people be?

Of all the vile things the Right does, the demonization of Planned Parenthood is one of the worst! The benevolent organization provides free or low cost health care to millions of women that could not afford it otherwise! Health care that is vital to the Health and well being of the women and their unborn child!

No tax payer money is used for abortions! NONE! You want to punish millions of women for the sin of being poor and pregnant?

How do monsters like you even live with yourself? Much less call yourselves Christians!

Coming from a conspirator of infanticide

The extent of your intellect......vomit emojis!

Two days following the 9/11 attacks, Donald Trump was at Ground Zero with hundreds of workers that he paid for out of his own pocket to help find and identify victims. This was many years before he thought of running for President. He's been supporting the America he loves for decades.

Who are you to put him down? Have you done so much for this country or contributed to humanitarian efforts? It's easy to sit at a computer and sling mud.

A Quick Look at Donald Trump's Philanthropy
Ade Adeniji
Whatever your opinion of Donald Trump, it's impossible to go a full news cycle without hearing the billionaire's name. The New York native's Trump Organization is behind a slew of properties in New York City, Las Vegas, Toronto, Seoul, and other places throughout the world. Then there's Trump the television star, and more recently, Trump the unlikely frontrunner on the Republican ticket.

But what about Trump the philanthropist?

We've written before about Trump's son, Eric, who's only in his early 30s, but whose Eric Trump Foundation, has donated over $28 million to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in California alone. The Eric Trump Foundation also has a strong web presence.

Donald Trump, meanwhile, has called himself an "ardent philanthropist." Unlike his son's foundation, though, the Donald J. Trump Foundation doesn't have much of a web presence. The foundation has been around since 1987, and according to the most recent tax filings available, gave around $913,000. In 2012, the foundation gave away around $1.7 million. Trump spreads his money around to a number of different outfits, but grants rarely exceed $100,000. It is possible that Trump does much of his giving outside of his formal charitable vehicle, and that more recent gifts—which we can't track—have been larger, but the money coming out of the Donald J. Trump Foundation that we can see is modest compared to Trump's $4 billion net worth.

Of late, Trump has tended to give modest sums to a number of national health organizations such as American Cancer Society, American Diabetes Association, Alliance for Lupus Research, Autism Speaks, Crohn's & Colitis Foundation of America, and more. One particular health cause does not appear to be favored over any other. It is worth noting that in 2011, Trump and his siblings gave a $1 million gift to support and name the Institute for Implant Analysis at the Hospital for Special Surgery, which treated Trump's parents.

Trump has also supported various human services outfits. Last decade, Trump gave at least $1 million to United Way. The foundation has supported Citymeals-on-Wheels and the National Network to End Domestic Violence, among others. Trump also focuses on New York, giving grants to outfits such as New York City Police Foundation, Ronald McDonald House of New York, and New Yorkers For Parks, among others. Trump also gives sums to Florida organizations. The foundation has also given assorted sums to celebrity charities such as the Joe Torre Safe at Home Foundation, which deals with domestic violence.

Trump also recently announced that he was donating $1.1 million of his own personal money to Marine Corps—Law Enforcement Foundation. He also helped net $4.5 million for some two dozen veterans groups including American Hero Adventures in Eugene, Oregon, which provides "stress relieving, and bonding activities to the combat wounded... and their families"; Navy Seal Foundation; and Veterans Airlift Command.

At times, Trump's philanthropy has been contradictory—he supports Gay Men's Health Crisis on the one hand, and the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association, which has decried the influence of the "gay lobby," on the other.

Just as I thought! Unproven! If it were true it could be easily verified!
