Here is How Trump Saved the NYC Veterans Day Parade in 1995
President Trump has been a target for the media for years, with most stories showing how he is a corrupt businessman. Recently, a story emerged about how President Trump saved the New York City Veterans Day parade from certain failure.
According to The Daily Caller:
AdvertisementBut while Trump will be making history Monday as he attends the parade, an offer the United Veterans War Council has made to every president since 1985, his involvement as a citizen with the annual Veterans Day event dates back to 1995 when he saved the event from dire financial straits.
Less than three months before the 1995 Veterans Day parade, in mid-August, organizers had just $1.21 in the event’s bank account after receiving nothing from the 200 corporations, including military contractors, they had reached out to for financial support, The New York Times reported in 1995.
…
It was at that point then-businessman Trump stepped in and saved the event by contributing between $325,000 and $375,000, parade organizer Vincent McGowan told CNN in 2016.
Trump’s contribution unleashed a windfall of donations to the parade’s organizers. While the parade’s budget was ultimately reduced from $2.9 million to $2.4 million, The NYT reported, the show was able to go on.
President Trump also donated $1 million in 1985 to fund the construction of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Plaza in NYC.

Well…I have a funny feeling that the Dimms will fail, just as they failed in 2016. Be Certain to be at the Polls on Election Day…and Be First in Line to Vote. Then go to your State Source, to see if your Deceased Family Members have been voting. Ohhhh yeah, it happens.
This is the second article in a row that doesn’t finish the story. How did he save it? You folks have some weird things going on with your publication. Not only are the articles extremely short, with nothing to explain the headline, but I also have to scroll past about 100 other links, one by one, to get to the comments section.
Trump has also not been influenced by the media hysteria on global warming. California has and is destroying their state. What are the facts? See “Scientific Facts and Climate Change, CO2 and Global Cooling” (Available at Amazon). Also consider Charles Law of thermodynamics: PV/T=PV/T where P=pressure, V=volume and T=absolute temperature (Kelvin scale). Then learn how CO2 intercepts infrared radiation in the thermosphere and spares our planet of excessive heat. Obama and the Paris accord are nonsense! UP to date slide show available!
