40% is a “fraction”? 19 of 22 groups funded is a “fraction”? Do the GOPe CruzBots at the WSJ know how hard it is to foundations to turn pledges into actual cash and then distribute it? I have worked with charities and sometimes it can take 6 months or more. Trump has done an admirable job so far. It is disgusting to see him smeared like this. Meanwhile rich Ted Cruz and his Wall St. wife gave less than 1% to charity. But he is SUCH a “devout Christian”...riiiight?
You are right. This is actually a good average, far better than many front line charities. Compare this figure with the ten cents on the dollar of the Clinton Global Initiative money that actually gets where it is supposed to go.
Bottom line: Even before all pledges in, Trump has accounted for millions to Vets. Any other candidate that can say that?
