Trump Used Charity Money To Buy Tim Tebow Helmet In an eye-opening segment, the video titled "Trump Used Charity Money To Buy Tim Tebow Helmet" dives deep into a scandal involving former President Donald Trump and his charitable activities. The discussion, hosted by Cenk Uygur and colleagues from The Young Turks, reveals that Trump allegedly used $12,000 from his charity to purchase a signed helmet and jersey from NFL player Tim Tebow in 2012.

Key Highlights:​

  • Charitable Misconduct: The Washington Post's investigation indicates that this purchase was part of a fundraiser for the Susan G. Komen Foundation, raising questions about the legality and ethics of using charitable funds for personal acquisitions.
  • Legal Implications: The hosts discuss potential legal ramifications, noting that if Trump kept the items for personal use, it would be deemed illegal. This raises broader concerns about transparency and accountability regarding charitable contributions made by the Trump Foundation.
  • Valuation and Market Trends: Ironically, the signed items have depreciated in value, now worth approximately $415, despite the original purchase price highlighting a confusing monetary decision.
  • Skeptical Sentiments: Given Trump's historical issues surrounding charity, the panel expresses skepticism about his intentions, suggesting that previous claims of being charitable are overshadowed by instances where he failed to contribute significantly to actual charitable causes. The video serves as a critical lens on the intersection of politics, charity, and ethics, particularly relevant as we approach the 2024 election season. It invites viewers to re-evaluate what charity means in the context of public figures and their social responsibilities.
