    Farenthold Disputes Trump Claim About Foundation Lawyers

    Following up on David Farenthold's report that Trump directed fees that were Trump's income to his charity, Trump was asked if his foundation followed all the applicable laws. Trump replied, "I hope so. I mean, my lawyers do it." Farenthold today said that he had reviewed the Foundation's returns for the last 14 years and apparently the Foundation has paid only $211 for legal services for that entire period. I'm pretty sure that equates to like 15 or 30 minutes of legal work over 14 years. That certainly doesn't sound like an organization that is trying to follow all the applicable laws.
