Trump is a self-promoting piece of trash. If his name isn’t in the media for a few days he thinks of a way to get his name back in front of all of us.
I've long believed that Trump is in cahoots with Obama. If you recall, back during the birth certificate bamboozle, several states were considering legislation that would require a presidential candidate prove he was a natural born citizen. Obama needed to head this movement off at the pass, but he had refused to release his birth certificate for over two years. He needed a "good reason" to capitulate without making it look like he was worried about what was going on at the state level regarding eligibility. Suddenly Trump takes center stage and "goads" Obama into releasing the BC. We all know the BC was phony as a three dollar bill, and Trump certainly has the money to hire any number of document experts. Instead, Trump meekly slinks away with his tail between his legs, and the press (including FOX), all declare the birther issue closed.
Now, Trump is back with this charity gimick completely out of left field. Why? To further discredit the right as birther nutjobs and, most importantly, to distract from Benghazi. Benghazi is going nuclear and the WH can't stop it so they roll out Trump with this ridiculous piece of foolishness.
