@momszycat4148 Trump has been using other people’s money for his own profit; he had used his charitable foundation as his own “Piggy Bank” and never donated any money to it.
“Mr. Trump ran the foundation according to his whim, rather than the law,” New York Attorney General Barbara Underwood said in a 41-page lawsuit she filed against Trump, two of his children, Eric and Ivanka, and the Donald J. Trump Foundation in the Supreme Court of New York in Manhattan."

"When Trump in 2007 settled a $25 million lawsuit he filed against the town after it cited and fined him for erecting a flagpole at Mar-A-Lago that was nearly twice as high as allowed and doing so without a permit, he agreed to donate $100,000 to charity. He and town officials agreed the money would go to the Fisher House Foundation, which provides lodging for families of vets who are hospitalized...However, Underwood said, instead of dipping into personal funds or Mar-A-Lago’s accounts, Trump wrote a check to Fisher House using foundation money. A handwritten note, included in the lawsuit, shows Trump personally directed his accountant to take money from the foundation to settle the “flag issue in Palm Beach.”
Trump keeps playing the same scams over and over, his daughter-in-law spent $2 million on a fundraising gala event at Mar-A-Lago for a dog rescue charity; I bet the dog rescue paid full price, and Trump will try to get a charitable donation deduction.
