that was in 2009 after vince mcmahon's gift. it doesn't have any staff. other charities, usually pretty small amounts. 5 to $50,000. and you look at those gifts and you don't really see some deep and abiding cause. no gifts to -- big gifts to trump's alma mater, gifts to cancer research, something like that. the thing that stands out is these gifts are tied to trump's business life and his social life. he owns a club in palm beach which can make $275,000 in one night renting itself out to charities. he needs to be in the good graces of charities in palm beach. you see him using this donald j. trump foundation filled with other people's money, you see him giving doan nations. one is the friends of the german hall of fame. they inducted donald trump into his own hall of fame. he charged them tens of thousands of dollars to rent the room, he gave them a $1,000 donation. even on the night he's inducted into the hall of fame from other people's money. >> interesting. interesting. good reporting. >> thank you. >>> coming up, much more on the breaking news this

in 2009, the mcmahon's gave a total of $5 million.. that was not trump's payment for wrestlemania, they got paid separately, but at the same time they made this donation. another big donor is richard e bert-a high-end ticket broker. every year he gives $450,000 to $600,000 always in odd amounts. he also didn't want to talk about this. another is nbc universal, which televised the celebrityce apprentice. trump used his foundation money to give what he said weree personal gifts out of his own pocket on the show. nbc gave him a $500,000 gift, which served to cover the cost of those personal donations. >> woodruff: what about what the foundation has given money to? is there a pattern, a mission, a particular cause donald trumpic has been interested in?d >> that's interesting, as well. a lot of times you see rich people started their own private foundations, an abiding cause. they give to their alma mater, cancer research, something likei that. with trump there is no such abiding cause. the money is giving out in relatively small amount, be

vince mcmahon, the wrestling mogul, richard hebers don't want to explain. it's possible that that is some income they owed to donald trump and he said put in it my foundation. those people haven't commented. if you look back further in the trump 23r5igs where it seems like in truth somebody paid money to trump's foundation instead of to him. one example is the comedy central roast in 2011. trump said he gave a $400,000 appearance fee to charity. she's talking about a broader pattern. nobody else has identified that so far. >> has there been any follow-up? to me, the smoking gun aside from the entertainment value of the paintings and the tim thibault hell net is the two legal settlements used money out of the trump foundation. has there been any further developments on that? >> no. kelly ann conway has made some references in some interviews to maybe there being more to one of these stories. there's a case where somebody sued trump's golf club after being offered a million dollar hole in one prize. the hole in one's foundation, that money was paid by the tru

it's a form of legal kickback, the guy who sells his ties made in china, gives money to it, the mcmahon'sas doing world wrestling federation events at the casinos when he owned them. they would make contributions, donald wouldn't make a contribution because he in all likelihood pays no federal tax or little federal tax. >> let me read this before you respond. here's what the post writes. nearly all of its money comes from people other than trump, and tax records, the last gift from trump was in 2008. since then, all of the donations have been other people's money. is this why he wasn't release his taxes? >> not at all. we could get to the taxes in a minute. what he's doing is using his name, his contacts to raise a lot of money, and then he gives it out. the united way does the same thing, there are plenty of foundations that use their clout, raise money, and give it to good causes. in fact the clinton foundation does it that way too. >> is this why he won't release his taxes? >> not at all. if i were advising donald trump which i'm not. i would strongly advise him not to release his taxe

vince mcmahon gave about $5 million in 2007 and 2009.nd trump has been spending down that giant lump of money for a while. but there are other cases in which trump goes to people to raise money so trump can give the same money away to another charity and claim credit for it. we've looked at a couple of those examples as well. >> as far as the trump campaign or donald trump's transparency to use the media's favorite word of the day, his transparency on this, you've gotten zero cooperation from them, you've asked them, the foundation, you asked donald trump, the campaign, constantly to provide information and they don't. >> they have given us very, very little. in a few cases, again, a couple weeks ago we wrote about this penalty they had to pay to the irs for giving an illegal campaign contribution out of the foundation. they did tell us about that, but it's been few and far between examples like that. >> as you know, i've admired your fixation on this from your first day on the job, and we need a dozen more reporters sticking with it and

that was after vince mcmahon, the wrestling mogul, gave trump money a few years ago.ow he has about $1.3 million in the bank. there's no paid staff. the board of directors is four trumps, and one trump foundation -- trump organization staffer. it's basically -- it exists basically on paper. its gifts -- you know, other big charitable donors give away for the same causes year after year. they give money to alma mater, a particular research cause they believe in. trump's causes don't have that pattern. he gives sporadically a little here, there, mostly to charities that do business at his clubs in florida or people he meets socially. >> then, of course, all of this, as i'm listening to you and you read your piece in "the washington post," therein lies the question, if he just releases his tax returns, we would know the true story. thank you, thank you. let's bring dave chalian and maeve reston with me. you heard everything david lays out, if he were to just release his tax returns, which he said he's being auditing and that's why he's not doing it, that would lay this t

i have a clip from wrestling about when he shaved the head of vince mcmahon.stery man and a strong woman. and every single thing about them is different. and also the fact that donald trump is not usually at his most blustery when there is a woman this close to him. think of the pastor in flint a week or so ago when he meekly backed off and carly fiorina. somebody who prides his strength will deal with a tough woman right there. >> we have that moment of carly fiorina because that did seem to be one moment when he was back on his heels. look at that face. who would vote for that face? i met o her persona, not her face. here's how she responded. >> you know, it's interesting to me, mr. trump said he heard very clearly what mr. bush said. i think women all over this country heard very clearly what mr. trump said. >> she won that one, that point, and even that debate. so hillary clinton has to somehow manufacture or wait for or find a moment like that. >> i think she might be able to assume there'll be attack moments from donald trump. i'm sure they're planning t

national security i was scheduled to have my first meeting with our outstanding staff director holly mcmahon who i think man of you know at 9:30 a.m. on the morning of september 11th, 2001. and as i was getting ready to head down to the aba building next to the white house of course watched what unfolded in the news that morning and the -- what happened and unfolded over the coming days and weeks was an amazing reminder to me of the incredibly important role that lawyers play in this country, particularly in times of crisis. the lawyers all came together within two weeks of 9/11, i remember i think it was september 28th, what is usually a monthly breakfast with a speaker was that month just a coming together of lawyers who practiced or were interested in national security law to talk about the important role that law would play in the coming weeks and months following that attack. but lawyers do play that important role as counselors, as advocates, as educators and as leaders in your community. and at dhs and particularly at the national protection and programs directorate which i have the g

somehow he got mcmahon, the wrestling to give him a bunch of money and others to give him money and he gave it out as if it was his from the trump foundation. and it wasn't. or at least the last eight years he's put no money into it. so there's a lot of other problems with the foundation where he's used it and used it to pay off legal -- he said civil suits. and in order to make certain payments then he used the fund to pay off his personal civil suit. >> the trump foundation responded to the story about that. this is part of what they said, there was not or could not be any intent or motive for the foundation to make improper payments. all reported to the irs, mr. trump is generous both with he of dollars to fundation foundation in a multitude of other charitable causes. >> he hasn't done that. he hasn't put any money in the trump foundation since 2008, number one. number two, it really gets to me right here, one of the most important institutions in our world and certainly from my hometown of memphis, tennessee, is st. jude children's research hospital. you don't mess with st. jude,
