Imagine that. The "Build the Wall GoFund Me was a con all along.
GoFundMe said Friday that it would refund $20 million raised by over 300,000 donors for President Trump's border wall after an account aiming to raise $1 billion for the wall changed part of its campaign.
Basically he changed it from "every penny going to build the wall" to all of it going to a non-profit he created with the "intent of getting the wall built."
What a scam. Thankfully GoFundMe doesn;t put up with scams like this. The irony is this kind of repurposing/funneling scam is exactly what got the Trump Foundation closed down and in court.
