21. You missed these

1.
- 2008. Trump said that he would send proceeds from sales of his shitty vodka to the Walter Reed Society that helps wounded military.
- Walter Reed Society board member, John Pierce, recalls receiving “a few hundred dollars.”

2.
- January 2016, Trump dodges the Fox News-sponsored presidential debate because Megyn Kelly, noted for "blood coming out of her eyes...her wherever" would be one of the questioners.
- To placate "the base" Trump offers to do a fundraiser for veterans and would donate $1 million right off the bat.
- 28 Jan 2016, Trump held that nationally televised fundraiser for veterans’ causes in Des Moines, IA.
- Trump said the fundraiser had raised about $5.5 million for veterans.
- $4.5 million had been raised, and $3.1 million had been given away.
- The piece that was missing - the $1 million that Trump himself said he’d given.
- His campaign swore that he already given the money!
- Not one of the groups his campaign said received the money ever got a donation from Trump.
- When people started asking questions, his then campaign manager, Corey Lewandowski, said they wouldn’t reveal where that money went. Because...?
- 23 May 2016, 114-days later and under media pressure - Trump finally gave the $1 million he had promised.

3.
- August 2020: "Donny (Jr.) was going to join the army or some bullshit like that, and Donald and Ivana told him if he did, they’d disown him in a second.” - Mary Trump, commenting on her book about Trump and the Trump family.
