Trump just doesn't understand that. He wants prizes, medals, and trophies without doing anything except whine and throw tantrums.

He makes me ill. And so do the ignorant trash who voted for him. The stupid people he loves. Although he loves no one, just wakes up figuring out what the con d’jour is gonna be.

That campus does wonderful work for children and their parents. TSF never has nor ever will have anything close to this because it wasn’t founded for profit. I am a proud supporter of St Jude’s 🌺

A neighbors daughter had leukemia. St Jude fixed her, no bill, lifetime support. A high school senior had a brain tumor. St Jude to the rescue. And the list is never ending. They get our well spent money.

The building is not named after him.

If Trump founds a charitable hospital, one that does not charge any patient for care, I will lead the charge to have his name on the facade as the founder.
