Trump's True Crimes: Episode 20 - The Charity Thief
In this episode, we uncover the shocking story behind the Trump Foundation, a charity that was supposed to support worthy causes but ended up being a personal slush fund for Donald Trump. From using charitable donations to settle lawsuits to purchasing portraits of himself, Trump manipulated his foundation for his own gain. We dive deep into the 2016 exposé that revealed his misuse of funds and the subsequent legal battle that led to the foundation’s shutdown. With a $2 million restitution, Trump managed to avoid serious legal consequences, but the damage to his reputation was done. Tune in to hear how Trump exploited charity for his personal brand.
Next time: Episode 21 will reveal how Trump stole Mar-a-Lago from the American people.
