Sitting here in the middle of the political scene as a Centrist I get to see both sides of the aisle but there appears to be only one side to the Donald Trump story. So even though I’m not a big fan of his as I’m not of most businessmen or politicians, the way the Liberals have been pounding him has made me grow more than a little suspicious. I don’t remember reading bad stuff about Obama, but I do remember that he pissed me off several times. In fact, as I recall, his first term didn’t go all that well and had the Republicans, stupidly, not run a rich guy against him when the one percenters were not the soup du jour, he may not have had a second term.
Knowing though that enough people liked Trump to elect him as our new president, I thought, there’s got to be another side to this story, so I went looking for it. Finally, I came across this article written by Liz Crokin who is an award-winning author and a seasoned journalist who is also an advocate for sex crime victims. She began her journey at the University of Iowa where she received a bachelor’s in journalism and political science.

Trump DoesThe Unthinkable by Liz Crokin.

Donald Trump is a
racist, bigot, sexist, xenophobe, anti-Semitic and Islamophobe — did
I miss anything?….Oh Right he is also deplorable. The left and the
media launch these hideous kinds of attacks at Trump everyday; yet,
nothing could be further from the truth about the real estate
mogul. As an entertainment journalist, I’ve had the opportunity to cover Trump for over a decade, and in all my years covering him I’ve never heard anything negative about the man until he announced he was running for president.Keep in mind, I got paid a lot of money to dig up dirt on celebritieslike Trump for a living so a scandalous story on the famous billionaire could’ve potentially sold a lot of magazines and would’ve been a Huge feather in my cap.Instead, I found that he doesn’t drink alcohol or do drugs, he’s a hardworking businessman.On top of that, he’s one of the most generous celebrities in the world with a heart filled with more gold than his $100 million New York penthouse.Since the media has failed so miserably at reporting the truth about Trump, I decided to put together some of the acts of kindness he’s committed over three decades which has gone virtually unnoticed or fallen on deaf ears.
 
• In 1986, Trump prevented the foreclosure of Annabell Hill’s
family farm after her husband committed suicide.  Trump
personally phoned down to the auction to stop the sale of her home and
offered the widow money.  Trump decided to take action after he
saw Hill’s pleas for help in news
reports.
 
In 1988, a commercial airline refused to fly Andrew Ten, a sick
Orthodox Jewish child with a rare illness, across the country to get
medical care because he had to travel with an elaborate life-support
system.  His grief stricken parents contacted Trump for help and
he didn’t hesitate to send his own plane to take the child from Los
Angeles to New York so he could get his
treatment.
 
In 1991, 200 Marines who served in Operation Desert Storm spent
time at Camp Jejune in North Carolina before they were scheduled to
return home to their families.  However, the Marines were told
that a mistake had been made and an aircraft would not be able to take
them home on their scheduled departure date.  When Trump got wind
of this, he sent his plane to make two trips from North Carolina to
Miami to safely return the Gulf War Marines to their loved
ones.
 
In 1995, a motorist stopped to help Trump after the limo he was
traveling in got a flat tire.  Trump asked the Good Samaritan how
he could repay him for his help.  All the man asked for was a
bouquet of flowers for his wife.  A few weeks later Trump sent
the flowers with a note that read:  We’ve paid off your
mortgage.
 
In 1996, Trump filed a lawsuit against the city of Palm Beach,
Florida, accusing the town of discriminating against his Mar-a-Lago
resort club because it allowed Jews and blacks.  Abraham Foxman,
who was the Anti-Defamation League Director at the time, said Trump
put the light on Palm Beach not on the beauty and the glitter, but on
its seamier side of discrimination.  Foxman also noted that
Trump’s charge had a trickle-down effect because other clubs followed
his lead and began admitting Jews and
blacks.
 
In 2000, Maury Povich featured a little girl named Megan who
struggled with Brittle Bone Disease on his show and Trump happened to
be watching.  Trump said the little girl’s story and positive
attitude touched his heart.  So he contacted Maury and gifted the
little girl and her family with a very generous
check.
 
In 2008, after Jennifer Hudson’s family members were tragically
murdered in Chicago, Trump put the Oscar-winning actress and her
family up at his Windy City hotel for free.  In addition to that,
Trump’s security took extra measures to ensure Hudson and her family
members were safe during such a difficult
time.
 
In 2013, New York bus driver Darnell Barton spotted a woman
close to the edge of a bridge staring at traffic below as he drove
by.  He stopped the bus, got out and put his arm around the woman
and saved her life by convincing her to not jump.  When Trump
heard about this story, he sent the hero bus driver a check simply
because he believed his good deed deserved to be
rewarded.
 
In 2014, Trump gave $25,000 to Sgt. Andrew Tamoressi after he
spent seven months in a Mexican jail for accidentally crossing the
US-Mexico border.  President Barack Obama couldn’t even be
bothered to make one phone call to assist with the United States
Marine’s release; however, Trump opened his pocketbook to help this
serviceman get back on his
feet.
 
In 2016, Melissa Consin Young attended a Trump rally and
tearfully thanked Trump for changing her life.  She said she
proudly stood on stage with Trump as Miss Wisconsin USA in 2005.
However, years later she found herself struggling with an incurable
illness and during her darkest days she explained that she received a
handwritten letter from Trump telling her she’s the bravest woman, I
know.  She said the opportunities that she got from Trump and his
organizations ultimately provided her Mexican-American son with a
full-ride to college.
 
 Lynne Patton, a black female executive for the Trump Organization, released a
statement in 2016 defending her boss against accusations that he’s a
racist and a bigot.  She tearfully revealed how she’s struggled
with substance abuse and addiction for years.  Instead of kicking
her to the curb, she said the Trump Organization and his entire family
loyally stood by her through immensely difficult times.
 

Donald Trump’s
kindness knows no bounds and his generosity has and continues to touch the lives of people from every sex, race and religion. WhenTrump sees someone in need, he wants to help  Two decades ago, Oprah asked Trump in a TV interview if he’d run for president. He said: If it got so bad, I would never want to rule it out
totally, because I really am tired of seeing what’s happening with this country.
That day has come.Trump sees that America is in need and he wants to help. How unthinkable!

On the other hand, have you ever heard of Hillary or Obama ever doing such things with their own resources?

  1. GREAT ARTICLE GEORGE! It deserves to be #1! I’ve personally witnessed Trump’s extraordinary generosity. He gifted my son-in-law with $40K for his double lung transplant. Do not judge him solely by his words ~ (he can be a rude, crude dude). And do not judge him by anything said about him by the ‘alphabet media’. Judge him, rather, on his deeds! Trump is an extraordinary human being! But, the mainstream media will never tell that side the story! Thank you for doing so!
