In attacking Clinton foundation, Trump seeks a Republican rallying cry
After struggling to find a consistent message and consolidate party support, Donald Trump is honing his attack on Democratic presidential rival Hillary Clinton and the foundation bearing her family's name in hopes of making it a rallying cry for fellow Republicans.
Trump began hammering the Democrat this week over the Clinton Foundation, an organization created by her and her husband former President Bill Clinton that funds aid programs in developing countries.
On Monday, Trump called for the foundation to be shut down and for a special prosecutor to be named to investigate it. In particular, he accused Clinton of having turned the charity into a "pay-for-play" scheme in which wealthy donors to the organization got favors from the State Department while Clinton was secretary of state from 2009-2013. The Clinton campaign denied that, saying Clinton never took any action because of donations to the foundation.
So, what is the foundation doing? Is it some nefarious money funnel to the Clinton bank account? No, actually, the foundation is involved in some really good projects that save lives and otherwise makes life better for others around the world. And it's very efficient in turning donations into work in the field. From wikipedia:
CharityWatch, says that 88% of the foundation's money goes toward its charitable mission and gave the foundation an A rating for 2016.[9]
Initiatives funded by the Clinton foundation include expanding access to healthcare, promoting growth of small businesses in poor areas not just in the US but elswhere in the world, education, disaster relief. Exactly how much good has the Donald accomplished that he feels emboldened to cast shade on the Clinton Foundation?
So, typical of Trump, he cares not or knows nothing of the good works being done. "Shut it Down" he says. He only sees an opportunity to attack an opponent.

A sampler from one of the most brazen scams going.
In December 2008, Bruce Lindsey, the Chief Executive Officer of the Clinton Foundation, and Valerie Jarrett, co-chairman of the Obama-Biden Transition Team, [URL='http://images.politico.com/global/2015/02/24/us_dept_of_state.html']signed a memorandum of understanding that the activities of the Clinton Foundation would not “create conflicts or the appearance of conflicts for Senator Clinton as Secretary of State.”
During Secretary Clinton’s tenure, at least 181 individuals, companies, and foreign governments gave money to the Clinton Foundation while officially lobbying the State Department.
From 2001 to 2015, the Clinton Foundation
raised over $2 billion in donations. From February 2001 to May 2015, Bill Clinton gave 637 speeches and made $132,021,691 in speaking fees alone. Hillary gave 92 speeches from February 2013 to March 2015. She was paid $21,648,000. While the Clintons made speeches to Goldman Sachs and Citigroup, it was the
foreign donations to the Clinton Foundation that were the most disturbing.
In
13 speeches, Bill made at least $500,000. Eleven of those speeches occurred when Hillary Clinton was Secretary of State (2009-2013). All eleven of those speeches were
delivered outside of the United States, including Russia and China.
Since people don’t give that kind of money for nothing in return, the question is did these donors get pay for play immediately when Hillary was Secretary of State or did they expect something only if Hillary was elected president? In his 2015 book
Clinton Cash, author Peter Schweizer argues that foreign donors have already received a return on their investment when Hillary was Secretary of State through Bill Clinton’s speaking fees and donations to the Clinton Foundation.
Kazakhstan: Clinton’s adventures with Frank Giustra didn’t begin with Russia. In 2005, Clinton went with Giustra to Kazakhstan to meet with President Nursultan Nazarbayev. Giustra’s obvious connections with Clinton clearly made an impression on the Kazakh dictator.
Two days after this meeting, Kazakhstan’s state-owned company, Kazatomprom, gave Giustra’s company the right to buy three uranium projects in the country. A few months later, Giustra
returned the favor to Clinton by donating $31.3 million to the Clinton Foundation.
In 2006, Frank Giustra described his relationship with Clinton
saying, “He’s a brand, a worldwide brand, and he can do things and ask for things that no one else can.”[/URL]
