Red Cross, Salvation Army and 3 more charities cancel events at Mar-a-Lago

Five more charities, including the International Red Cross and the Salvation Army, are cancelling their plans to have fundraising events at Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort in the wake of Trump's comments on Charlottesville.

According to Politico, the charities cancelling their events are:

Susan G. Komen, a multimillion-dollar nonprofit that raises money for breast cancer research; the International Red Cross; The Salvation Army; the Autism Association of Palm Beach County; and Big Dog Ranch Rescue in Loxahatchee Groves, Florida, all said they were pulling events from Mar-a-Lago’s upcoming winter fundraising schedule, according to local reports.

They joined the Cleveland Clinic, the American Cancer Society and the American Friends of Magen David Adom, all of which announced Thursday their decision to move their events off-site, bringing the total of charities to pull events from Trump’s estate to eight.

One has to really wonder if Trump is realizing being a racist for the sake of not admitting to be wrong is bad for his business. Apparently, either he realizes and he doesn't care, or he doesn't realize it. Either way, the United States can't have a president who doesn't realize racism is bad even for his business or that he doesn't care.
