Thats not a counterpoint at all, lets not forget that Trump only threw this "fundraiser" because he was pouting over his perceived mistreatment by Fox News and Megyn Kelly, so he skipped their debate and subsequently lost Iowa. Fast forward to today and he is still crying about the media, its not a surprise that he didn't hit the number he claimed he did.

I don't think we need any more proof that people will hate Donald Trump no matter what he does.
Shall we look into how little of the money donated to the Clinton Foundation actually goes to charity?

its not a surprise that he didn't hit the number he claimed he did. Not at all. He's a big mouth fish out of water trying to speak about things that he's not even slightly familiar w/. He gets caught all the time saying over exagerrated ridiculous comments. He's extremely defensive and it shows but when was the last time someone running for w/e turned it into a fundraiser? I mean if he's caught stealing money to fund his campaign then yeah ok. At the same time hearing both sides of a situation is probly best.

Asking questions now qualifies as an attack The media is most definitely not biased in any way shape or form whatsoever.

Clinton released decades of her tax returns.

So we can pretend to be outraged that he uses accountants to pay as little tax as possible using our existing tax code? Yeah why not I guess. It doesn't matter what is in his tax returns, the reaction from the left will be the same.

Don't exaggerate readily variable facts? It's not that mysterious. Just making a point. Obviously that was exactly what one should consider as an attack. You thinking it was funny or not was irrelevant to my point.

Almost as funny as the media thinking that top headlines and a crapload of free press is going to actually hurt Trump this time.
Hey guys, remember that time that Trump raised nearly 6 million dollars in charity for veterans? Let's try to gloss over the fact that, short of the goal or not, it's still a lot of money. How? By pointing out the new, shocking revelation that Trump is a self-promoting blowhard. Also, please take care to ignore the fact that, unlike how the Clintons operate, it actually got spent on real charities instead of being funneled through his family's charity slush fund.

The media leans towards sensationalism. Not news. Nor the point.
If this is the kind of trivial nonsense that sets Trump off perhaps this is isn't the line of work he needs to be perusing

But about 9% of program revenues going towards non-charity expenses is pretty average for a charity that size.
Clinton Foundation needs to take a page from Goodwill's books though, their non-charity expenses average about 4%
At least they aren't as bad as the Salvation Army, who's non-charity expenses are about 12%
I mean, let's attack the Clinton Foundation for it's gifts themselves, which some of it comes from many foreign countries and donors. Which Clinton has an indirect tie to, which may be illegal since she is running for president. But I'm sure the Justice Department isn't going to look into that, since she is good friends with Obama.

He is?!
THIS CHANGES EVERYTHING.
I've been advocating for the lizard people taking over for years. Why didn't he just say so!?
He would have had my vote sooner. I mean, now that I know this it all makes sense. I've always said reality television would be the end of society, I just didn't realize it was the lizard men's plan!
Well now I feel so much better about everything.

Hey guys, remember that time that Trump raised nearly 6 4 million dollars in charity for veterans? and claimed it was $6M? Let's try to gloss over the fact that, short of the goal or not, it's still a lot of money. How? By pointing out the new, shocking revelation that Trump is a self-promoting blowhard....
Quote: ... the Associated Press reached out to all 41 different groups the presumptive GOP nominee name-checked at the press conference and, of the 30 that responded, “about half said they had received checks from Trump just last week,” roughly four months after the fundraiser in question and weeks after reporters began pressing Trump to document the donations.
It gets worse: Several of those checks, including the personal one for $1 million that Trump cut himself, were dated May 24, 2016, aka the very same day that Trump faced pointed questions from the Washington Post about both the amount of money he raised at his January fundraiser and the amount that had made its way to veterans charities.... So until LAST WEEK Trump sat on much of the donations and his own vaunted $1M pledge.

So until LAST WEEK Trump sat on much of the donations and his own vaunted $1M pledge.
When expressed as a percentage of their personal expendable income, I wonder who has given more to charities, your average FFXIAH patron or Donald Trump (or Hillary, or Bernie. Whatever.)?
I'm not saying that as an attack. I'm genuinely curious.
It's not the perfect metric for answering the "well what have you done for the less fortunate/those in need?!" response to these situations, but I think it would be a good place to start.

Quote: US TV network NBC is cutting ties with Donald Trump over "recent derogatory statements" that the veteran businessman made about immigrants.
NBC said the company would now not be airing the Miss USA and Miss Universe pageants that are co-owned by Mr Trump.
Responding to the announcement, Mr Trump said he would consider suing NBC.
Earlier this month, he accused Mexicans of adding drugs and crime to the US as he announced he was seeking the Republican presidential nomination.
"They're bringing drugs, they're bringing crime, they're rapists, and some I assume are good people, but I speak to border guards, and they tell us what we are getting," he said in his speech on 16 June.
He also pledged to build a "great wall" on the US border with Mexico and insisted it would be paid for by Mexicans.
He later insisted he was criticising US lawmakers, not Mexican people. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-33321290
I'm honestly surprised with some of the shit he says. Even though I probably shouldn't be.
