June 2017 The Return of Weaksauce

[gotsnowgotslush]

Weaksauce in the form of some old UK film footage, overdubbed with the voices of a few Trump trolls (small group of young men) shouting "Trump, we love you." Trying to give the impression that people at the Manchester UK gathering, had any kind of respect for Trump. Did they do it for the lawls ?(It is listed on the ultra Trump sites. Is there anyone gullible enough to believe it ?)

Kellyanne Conway's weaksauce, defending Trump by whining that the world pays to much attention to Trump's tweets.(After Trump sends out a number of awful tweets.)

"This obsession with covering everything he says on Twitter and very little of what he does as president --"

"But that's his preferred method of communication with the American people," Craig Melvin said.

"That's not true," she insisted.

"Well, he hasn't given an interview in three weeks, so lately it's been his preferred method."

Trump obsessed with tweeting abuse - Khannnnnnnn!

"As Trump was engaging in his attack on Mr Khan, the US Conference of Mayors, which represents 1,400 communities with populations of 30,000 or more, sent a message of support to the London mayor and to Londoners."

“The United States Conference of Mayors stands today united with Mayor Sadiq Khan of London and the people of London. We send condolences to family and loved ones of those dead and injured,” said the group, which represents every community in the US with a population of more than 30,00 people."

The statement from the group, added: “The Mayors of the USA whose cities have been hit with an attack of hate and murder have an even more personal feeling for London Mayor Khan. We commend him for his statement today…Thank you, Mayor Khan, for your leadership during this crisis.”

Weaksauce, Trump commands a photo-op, with Oval office pomp, to sign a memo. (As if he has accomplished something.)

I have to wonder if President Trump thinks that the London Mayor is related to the couple who told him to read the Constitution.

Did Trump really skim charity money from kids with cancer?

June 6, 2017

According to reporter Dan Alexander, for the first four years of its existence, the Eric Trump Foundation, founded in 2007 by Donald‘s second son, Eric Trump, mostly made good on its promises to donors: it sent virtually all its money to sick kids in need at St. Jude’s Children’s Research Hospital in Memphis.


But starting in 2011, things took a big turn.


Perhaps it’s totally a coincidence then, that around the time the tournament’s costs started to skyrocket, four of the original seven board members resigned and were replaced by 14 new ones, “the majority of whom owed all or much of their livelihoods to the Trump Organization.

$500,000 (plus) was redirected to a variety of other charities, many of which were personal favorites of Trump family members and several of which had nothing to do with children's cancer—but happened to become clients of Trump's golf courses.”

In effect, though, this maneuver would appear to have more in common with a drug cartel's money-laundering operation than a charity's best-practices textbook. That $100,000 in outside donations to the Donald J. Trump Foundation (remember: Trump himself didn't give to his own foundation at this time) passed through the Eric Trump Foundation--and wound up in the coffers of Donald Trump's private businesses.

People that attended the charity paid large amounts of money to attend-

" $3,000 for a single all-day ticket to $100,000 for a pair of VIP foursomes."

(Who would not be willing to help. and pitch in ? It was a charity event for children with cancer. Merchandise, supplies, services, and entertainment were donated-)

"It's hard to find an explanation for this cost spike. Remember, all those base costs were supposedly free, according to Eric Trump. The golf course? "Always comped," he says. The merchandise for golfers: "The vast majority of it we got comped." Drinks: "Things like wine we were normally able to get donated." And the evening performances from musicians like Dee Snider of Twisted Sister and comedians like Gilbert Gottfried: "They did it for free." So many sponsors donated, in fact, that the event invitation has carried enough logos to make a Nascar team proud."


2011, things took a turn. Costs for Eric Trump's tournament jumped from $46,000 to $142,000, according to the foundation's IRS filings. Why would the price of the tournament suddenly triple in one year? "


"...costs exploded to $230,000 in 2013, $242,000 in 2014 and finally $322,000 in 2015 (the most recent on record, held just as Trump was ratcheting up his presidential campaign), according to IRS filings."

Even if the Eric Trump Foundation had to pay the full rate for literally everything, Forbes couldn't come up with a plausible path to $322,000 given the parameters of the annual event (a golf outing for about 200 and dinner for perhaps 400 more).

gsgs comment-

Playing footsie, with hundreds of thousands of dollars, charging Eric's charity for millions. Stuffing the board full of Trump family and Trump supporters .
A scam, is a scam, is a scam.

If weaksauce never went away, how can it return?

Temporal displacement?
