We just had that Last Week Tonight piece where everyone was sad that true investigative reporting doesn't happen anymore, and then this guy is dropping hammers that are mostly ignored
 
(Side note: the WWE donated $4M to his foundation that year, see page 16. This is not illegal or unethical, just hilarious.)

Actually, as a side note to that side note, I wonder if that was a similar situation to what Trump did in these other cases -- taking donations to his foundation in lieu of payments to himself.

That $4 million is likely his payout for working a program for Wrestlemania 23. The one where Vince ultimately got his head shaved.
 
An anchor at Univision actually tracked down one of the two portraits paid for by Trump's charity:

It looks like someone just took a photo of him and ran it through a Photoshop filter.

It looks like they just turned a photo into a 256-color gif without mapping to an optimized custom palette.
Major dawn of the web flashbacks.
