The magazine reported that Trump then turned to his chief of staff, Mark Meadows, and ordered him, “Don’t pay it!” That order was apparently heeded by Meadows, as the Atlantic reported that Trump never sent a dime to help cover funeral costs for the slain woman.
Sure, and all disrespect for trump but say I’m rich and crash my car into your fence and tell you “it’s fine just send me the bill”, there’s a difference when that bill turns out to be 60k
Sounds a bit like the family chose the 'Royale" because of his promise
If someone offers to pay your lunch, or in this case for the funeral of your murdered child, trying to make it ‘the most expensive in history’ to fully abuse that offer just makes you a Sad. person imo. Imagine having it done to you.
To reiterate: It’d make me happy Donnie almost dies in a fire but is kept in a conscious coma for hundreds of years
Well, I don’t care at all if you think I’m sad, but you may have missed your point.
If my neighbour offered to buy me lunch I would politely insist on contributing in my own way. I don’t really want people to buy things for me. That said, I dislike Trump immensely, he brags about his wealth, and if he offered to pay for something for me because the optics look good, I would absolutely abuse that offer. If it were for my daughters funeral presumably that would occupy my thoughts and I wouldn’t politicise it by using my daughters funeral as a way to steal from trump, but there would be no fucks given about the cost.
My point is, “someone” offering to buy me lunch is not at all the same as Trump offering to buy me lunch while interviewing me on TV in the whitehouse because it makes him look good.
Sure, I can understand trying to find ways to ‘get’ Trump, but seeing something that is still somewhat of an act of generosity as an opportunity to scam someone…
Anyway a) he was probably never going to pay this out of his own personal pocket and b) this just resulted in this family to have to pay for their absurdly lavish funeral themselves
He followed through with the sentiment too.
It’s absolutely vile to invite the mother to the white house, offer to pay, and then later rescind that offer.
If he’d never offered it wouldn’t matter.
This is just so so abhorrent, even for trump.
Racism aside, if I offered someone to help pay for a funeral, I’d choke in my coffee too if I the bill said $60.000 .
This is pocket change for Trump.
Allegedly.

Yes, but you wouldn’t:
Any idiot could see that the funeral was going to get out of hand.
If Trump said he’d by me lunch it’d be the most expensive lunch in history.

My point is that it wasnt an act of generosity.
He did it because it made him look good.
I know, it’s like Oprah giving away cars. But still, takes a special person to see that as an opportunity to scam them
