Apparently Trump hasn't donated a penny to Harvey victims

I've been checking Twitter, haven't found anything to indicate that he has given any of his own money.

And reporters who've asked about this have not received any responses from the White House or his business.

That's practically the same, right? And he has suffered more than anyone from Harvey. Just look at all the time the media is spending on that instead of talking about him.

If something doesn't profit that rat bastard or feed his megalomania it doesn't interest him at all.

Diapers, baby supplies, dog and cat food/beds, medicines, canned goods, clothing? Anything? Nope. Not a damn thing.
