Five million dollars is very large amount of money. Not just any near-do-well could afford that kind of coin. After November 6th, regardless of outcome, Obama is immune to such tactics and frankly he doesn't strike me as a guy who would give a hoot about his successors.
Yes Trump is an *******, an increasingly ridiculous clown and everyone knows it. But
it's f i v e m i l l i o n d o l l a r s !
If I were OB i'd call his bluff. Give the big STFU to the political opposition by proving they were wrong all along (just in time for the election too) and get a real significant boost for some deserving charity. I'd make sure Trump can't claim it as a charitable gift either.
It might not change my vote but it would make me respect our President a lot more.
