Leapin’ lizards, it’s almost as if the Trump Foundation were less of a real charity and more of a halfassed sham cobbled together with money, baling wire, post-it notes, and snot.

Oddly enough, being a halfassed sham cobbled together with money, baling wire, post-it notes and snot is exactly the combination of qualities that you need to qualify as a charitable foundation in Galt Gulch. Poor The Donald! He could have registered in Florida where every single goddam thing is legal, just ask Pam Bondi.

That's klass. As one wonker and I said earlier this year that is one fake gold-plated fucktastrophe.

Or how many times his life has possibly been threatened.

Foot traffic at his properties is down considerably since he declared his candidacy last year (according to FourSquare). In addition, the Culinary Workers union is picketing one of his Vegas properties due to lack of contract and various acts of corporate malfeasance, including union-busting, and has called for a worldwide boycott of all his properties. Finally, his phallic symbol here in Chicago has two floors of empty retail space on the bottom, because his team didn't do their due diligence before insisting on oddly shaped retail space you can't see or get to from the street.

Much like Darth Vader, Daddy Warbucks actually served in the war he supported.

Is the problem with his foundation, or the makeup person applying it?

So does this mean that people who donated to the foundation might have to amend their tax returns to lose the tax write-offs since they didn't really donate to a registered charity?

Might be an opportunity for some juicy lawsuits.

Wonder how he's gonna spin this one.

Bookings at the Mar-a-Lago are off, as are Trump Hotel reservations. Many of the latter are businesses, and probably don't want to imply to prospective customers that they endorse Trump. He's stained his brand.

I saw that when I was in Chicago in July - nothing on the bottom floors of the building. It's like he doesn't know anything about business....

Needs better applicator. Perhaps a Go Fund Me would be an option?

No. It means the foundation violated NY laws.
