        Someone anonymously dropped $5,000 as a donation. It’s always nice to see that some people are using their much-higher-than-average disposable income for the good of others.

        360k now, that’s at least enough to buy a good house with plenty leftover in that area.

      It’s at $219,000 right now. That man deserves a fucking metal for actually getting a response from that child rapist. We need this to happen to him wherever he goes! This is one of those few times that filming yourself insulting someone is not only permissible, but encouraged.

            does he also mouth “fuck you” to the guy? it kind of looks like it, but it kind of doesn’t, but I can’t tell how much is just the fact that Trump’s face is fucking weird and he talks funny

              He did according to TMZ.

              In response, the 47th President of the United States mouthed “F*** you” to the man before flipping him off.

          There is. Someone else should have yelled out “and he’ll do it again” to see if he slips up. “Yeah…wait…”

      Now we wait for Trump to shakedown file a lawsuit against GoFundMe or have the DOJ investigate them for “funding terrorists”. Possibly both because why not.

      I’m always skeptical on these. How do we know it’s his and not just some scammer?

        It looks like the beneficiary was setup to the correct name. Not sure how accurate that is. Might need to find a news source confirming he is the beneficiary.
