Remember that gauche “give me money to spend 45 minutes with my sister” scam Uday (or is it Qusay?) Trump was running? Yeah, that shit’s been shut down:
WASHINGTON — An auction offering a 45¬ minute private meeting with Ivanka Trump in exchange for a charitable donation was abruptly canceled Friday after questions were raised about the process by ethics experts, who said it appeared to offer bidders special access to the next first family.
Ethics concerns — hoocoodanode? Eric Trump, whose stubborn case of “resting sociopath face” is perhaps a factor in the decision to recruit his famous sibling for the auction rather than representing his eponymous foundation himself, was none too pleased about the derailment of the annual sister-hustle:
Eric Trump issued a statement as well, expressing regret that the charity effort had to be called off. “Today, the only people that lost are the children of St. Jude,” his statement said.
Then write a check to St. Jude yourself, cheap-ass Little Lord Fauntleroy. Oh, right — Trumps never open their own wallets, preferring instead to funnel other people’s money into charities that double as private slush funds.
This tacky-ass horde of parasitical grift-mavens will be so mired in scandal by March that Comrade Putin might be forced to take things into his own iron fists lest his new BFF Republican Party-Before-Country Party become unelectable for 10 generations.
