| Description | In an attempt to clear up the idea that he’s an ableist candidate, Donald Trump is making a bigger mess. In a Thursday interview, Donald Trump used his company’s compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act as the sole example of how he’s respectful to people with disabilities.
“I spend millions of dollars making buildings good for people that are disabled,” Trump told reporter Brian Kilmeade in a Fox & Friends interview.
This isn’t the first time Trump’s talked about his compliance with a federal law like it’s an act of charity.
Trump also claimed he’s “given more money to the ADA” than anyone else. The ADA, however, is a law — not something you can donate money to.
However, Trump hasn’t even consistently followed this federal law. |
