If someone offers to pay your lunch, or in this case for the funeral of your murdered child, trying to make it ‘the most expensive in history’ to fully abuse that offer just makes you a Sad. person imo. Imagine having it done to you.
To reiterate: It’d make me happy Donnie almost dies in a fire but is kept in a conscious coma for hundreds of years
Well, I don’t care at all if you think I’m sad, but you may have missed your point.
If my neighbour offered to buy me lunch I would politely insist on contributing in my own way. I don’t really want people to buy things for me. That said, I dislike Trump immensely, he brags about his wealth, and if he offered to pay for something for me because the optics look good, I would absolutely abuse that offer. If it were for my daughters funeral presumably that would occupy my thoughts and I wouldn’t politicise it by using my daughters funeral as a way to steal from trump, but there would be no fucks given about the cost.
My point is, “someone” offering to buy me lunch is not at all the same as Trump offering to buy me lunch while interviewing me on TV in the whitehouse because it makes him look good.
Sure, I can understand trying to find ways to ‘get’ Trump, but seeing something that is still somewhat of an act of generosity as an opportunity to scam someone…
Anyway a) he was probably never going to pay this out of his own personal pocket and b) this just resulted in this family to have to pay for their absurdly lavish funeral themselves
When someone brags about their wealth, and offers you free stuff without stipulation or limitation, the recipient is going to accept that offer. Any recipient.
It takes a special person to offer financial support to a grieving mother because it’s looks great on television, and later withdraw that support.
Oh look at this terrible calamity that has befallen you, why don’t you take this very nice thing that you can’t afford to make you feel better wink, I’ll surprise you with the bill for it once it’s too late and you can manage the burden of crushing debt as well as your grief at the loss of your child.

My point is that it wasnt an act of generosity.
He did it because it made him look good.
I know, it’s like Oprah giving away cars. But still, takes a special person to see that as an opportunity to scam them
No, it really doesn’t.
