Too cheap to part with cash. That would make a genuinely great photo op for any politician right now to donate blood, it's really needed right now and would set a good example.

and donated blood, and then stayed out of the way he might actually appear like he has a clue. Instead, he collects canned goods in Ohio and busses then to NJ, where he drops them off at a non-descript warehouse where no-one knows what to do with them. Yipee, the Pork and Beans Express. Cheer up, this has epic fail written all over it.

Josephy Smith ran in 1844 because God talked him into it. Eleven Mormons have run since, because God said a Mormon should be president.

Once you absorb that fact, everything else falls into place. It's not his job to know what he should do. His job is to become president. And obviously at any cost to facts, respect, patriotism, or honor.
