    The Astrodome is a symbol of racism, and must be torn down.

    Maybe Trump's million can help with this vital civic work...

    Who the hell is Joy Reid? And who is she to diminish one million dollars?

    These anti Trump whiners give me a pain in my rear. How much did Obama donate to Hurricane Sandy relief?

    Help is good. Self masturbation is bad.

    Well while being a Trump supporter is a pretty good sign of being a miserable example of the human species there are exceptions. Good for him.

    I'll believe Trump when the check is not only handed over, but when it clears the bank. He's probably biting his tongue for pledging his donation; the man truly hates to part with any of his money.

    Sorry but I doubt having a truck or a boat makes one a Trump supporter.

    Well it is the lest he can do since his proposed budget cuts funding for FEMA and NOAA. The man is a moron. Hilarious since those cuts were proposed a week before Harvey. Even nature seems determined to prove Trump a fool.

    I'm willing to make a bet that 8 out of 10 people with pickup trucks and fishing boats are Trump supporters
    how many die hard liberals you see wear camo drive a truck and own a fishing boat?

    He's donating more the 99.9% of people.

    Go **** yourself if you judge him for this.

    Sad.

    Saying "dwarf" is hate speech against little people.

    Reid should be fired IMMEDIATELY.

    Oops. Wet behind the ears there?
    They have begun fundraising efforts and raised millions. Doesn't mean they won't keep most of that money. Typically, the advertised recipients of "sudden" charities get little or nothing. It's all a scam.

    Then what's the point of masturbation if you can't do it yourself?

    "Launch" is the key word here. They didn't donate their money, they are using their fame to get others to donate. Entertainers have not been personally giving million dollar donations to Texas flood victims. Putting their celebrity face out there and telling every one ELSE to give is chicken droppings. So don't even try to compare "talking" about it to "doing" it.

    Even if well-intended, fund raising campaigns are often set up in response to catastrophic events but are comprised of inexperienced people trying to figure it out. They are unable to spend that money effeciently and quickly. Instead, they suck it all up in "administrative" costs and pay themselves big salaries and bonuses out of the money.

    The Red Cross, on the other hand, has the network, capacity and procurement contracts in place and are ready to stream the money out into the community quickly and efficiently. Anyone who is sincere about actually giving something to help can write a check to Red Cross and announce it publically in hopes others will follow the example.

    During a terrible catastrophy, we will often encounter many sudden charities sprouting up ready to collect money from well-meaning people. However, too many have no intention of passing money along to the flood victims. This has been a long time scam, and personally I think anyone seeking to profit from something like this should be shot.

    Where were all the antifa? I didn't see them wading chest deep into running flood waters to form a human chain to save lives.

    Well, if they are counting money given by others to celebrities fund raising campaigns as the celebrities own money then I guess we have to count government money designated by Trump as Trump's money. So Trump now leads $7.85 billion (plus $1 million) to $16 million. obama's still at zero point zero.

    Trump will probably hand the $1,000,000 as soon as he gets the check from Putin.

    Except Obama actually gave billions to the worlds largest state sponsor of terrorism, and aspiring nuclear rogue state Iran.

    Trump did not give money to Putin.

    Its those pesky details.

    So what. He is still taking in government money. His budget for this year is $1.1 million. That's twice as much as his salary when he was president!
