Sarah: Trump lifted sanctions on Russian oligarch with ties to the Kremlin, Blavatnik, has contributed at least $383,000 to the Republican National Committee since late April 2016 and added another $1 million to President Donald Trump’s inauguration fund.
Those figures include more than $12,000 that was later directed to Trump’s legal defense fund.
Also an ongoing attorney general lawsuit against Trump has alleged that the president and his three eldest children, who served as members of the foundation’s board, repeatedly used charitable donations for personal, political and business gains, including legal settlements, campaign contributions and even to purchase a painted portrait of Trump himself now hanging at his Florida Golf resort.
