In the early years, they weren't being billed [for the club]--the bills would just disappear," Ian Gillule, former membership and marketing director at Trump National Westchester, told Forbes. "Mr. Trump had a cow. He flipped. He was like, 'We're donating all of this stuff, and there's no paper trail? No credit?' And he went nuts. He said, 'I don't care if it's my son or not--everybody gets billed.'"

That billing the con artist spoke of was for use of a golf course at which charity events were being held to raise money for Jude Children's Research Hospital in Tennessee. Which is at odds to what his second-oldest progeny has said:

"We get to use our assets 100 percent free of charge," he [Eric] told Forbes' Dan Alexander.​

But this being the con artist, one shouldn't expect any charity. The for-profit Trump Organization received payments from the not-for-profit Eric Trump Foundation for use of the golf course, part of the $1.2 million that has no documented receipts beyond the Trump Organization, according to Forbes.

More than $500,000 in donations raised from the tournaments was re-donated to other charities, many of which were connected to Trump family members or interests, according to Forbes. Four such groups held their own charity tournaments at Trump golf courses at later dates. The nonprofit Donald J. Trump Foundation also donated $100,000 to the Eric Trump Foundation to cover tournament costs, money that was then redirected to Trump businesses, Forbes claims.

In other words, like the con artist has done with his own "foundation", his hand scooped out money intended for charity to be used for his own benefit. If the con artist has no problem doing this with his own family, what do you think he'll do with your money?

He needed the receipts in order to write them off his taxes. I think that this is a non-story, except to show how sloppily his business was handled.

Except this is the type of stuff that was and would have been hyped up about HRC. It leaves a really foul taste in the mouths of people who remember the "disparity of standards" each candidate had to meet.
