In a little-publicized act of kindness, it has been reported that Donald Trump gave financial support to Marine Sgt. Andrew Tahmooressi, the soldier held in a Mexican jail for 214 days.
Fox News’ Greta Van Susteren told her audience about the charitable effort on behalf of Mr. Trump, but also added this point about the President — he “wouldn’t even pick up the phone to help.”
via Greta Wire:
Trump: I was proud to help Sgt. Tahmooressi and this showed what we can do when we work together.
Watch Greta’s Off The Record segment below …
Greta: “In all seriousness, Donald did help out Sgt. Tahmooressi. He sent him some money to help him jump start his life. Sgt. Tahmooressi rotted in a Mexican prison for 214 days. President Obama wouldn’t even pick up the phone to help.”
Tahmooressi was released in November when a Mexican judge was finally convinced to do so on humanitarian grounds. His lengthy prison stay became a farce and a failure under the Obama administration, culminating in a September congressional hearing that was “highly critical of Obama Administration efforts to secure his release and Mexico’s refusal to let him go.”
It’s good to see that at least Mr. Trump cared enough to lend a helping hand.
What do you think of the claims that Donald Trump helped Sgt. Tahmooressi? And what do you think of Obama’s inaction during the time he was held in prison?

Well Obama
is a low life !!!! who does his race no justice !!! I would not expect anything from him!!!!
How exactly do you ‘accidentally’ make your way to Mexico from San Ysidro? The border is barricaded. And if he made a wrong turn, why did he not tell border partrol?! This is sadly a very troubled, mentally unstable young man who has since been arrested on drug and alcohol charges at least twice.
The situation of reservist Tahmooressi is not remotely comparable to the situation of Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, who was held for five years by the Taliban
TRUMP DOES MANY THINGS TO HELP PEOPLE AND HE DOESN’T WANT PEOPLE TO KNOW ABOUT .
I KNOW A RICH MAN THAT DOES THAT,TO HELP SICK PEOPLE WITH NO MONEY.
HE PAYS ALL EXPENSES,THAT MEDICARE DOESN’T PAY.
HE DIDN’T TELL ME THIS,MY DOCTOR DID.
I BELEIVE TRUMP AND THIS DONOR,LOVES AMERICANS.
LISTEN to Hillary’s “hot mic” moment, laughing about getting a Pedophile off here: http://freebeacon.com/politics/audio-hillary-clinton-speaks-of-defense-of-child-rapist-in-newly-unearthed-tapes/
HillBill’s words & actions since 70s aren’t bothersome but MrT makes lewd remarks 11YEARS ago & OMG, I’m hyperventilating, my knees are buckling & I think I’m gonna poop when I faint! Where’s my Safe Space? How will my bruised feelings ever recover? I’m changing & voting for the Angel.
The fake gasps & mock outrage makes me wanna vom as forcefully as Linda Blair in ‘The Exorcist’
Have you heard the one about the Most Powerful Man on Earth who used his Oral Orifice to ask a young woman, 3yrs outta teenage status, to disrobe, lie back on a desk, & simulate a sex act by repeatedly shoving a cigar into her Oval Orifice, in a locked Oval Office, so that he, Sick Willy, could Drop Trou & watch, while polishing his Slick Willy, til he reached that volcanic moment when Bubba’s Special Elmers-Glue-Juice spewed all over this young woman & her lovely Blue Dress?
Way cool right? Why not let him move back into the place & let him try his luck with the newbees?
We can do that by Super-Hyping remarks made by MrT 11yrs ago & pretend our hair is on fire & our faces are melting off with offendedness, while plugging our ears when HC calls Bernie fans & millennials a ‘Bucket of Losers’ & calls Trump ppl ‘Deplorables’ (Support HC & you’re a ‘Lovable’)
We can also ignore HRC’s “hot mic’ moments like laughing about getting a PEDOPHILE off.
BTW, this “BOMBSHELL NEWS STORY” happened so long ago that:
– Twitter Didn’t Even Exist at the time
– Youtube Had Only begun 8 mo prior
– Facebook had only begun 18mo prior
– Hurricane Katrina – Slammed The Gulf
– Fox News Celebrated Only It’s 9th Year
– Saddam Hussein – Stood Trial In Bagdad
– The “Colbert Report” aired for the 1st time
– HuffingtonPost Went Online for the 1st time
– Maroon5 won for the Best New Artist of year
– George Bush Was The President Of The U.S.
– The 1st Apple iPhone was still in development
– Condi Rice 1st Afro-American woman SecState
– NYFreedomtower design was formally approved
– National Debt- $7.9Trillion, now nearly $20Trillion
– M.Jackson stood trial 4 molestation of 13y old boy
– MarkFelt was revealed as Watergate “Deep Throat”
– Angela Merkel voted 1st female Leader of Germany
Re respect for women, how many of them has HRC threatened, bullied, & defamed because
of her husband’s ACTUAL ACTIONS – NOT WORDS – AGAINST WOMEN? That bothersome?
In Libya, HC’s negligence caused the DEATHS OF FOUR AMERICANS. Is THAT bothersome?
White House Spokesman Tommy Vietor told a News Anchor, “Dude! That was like 2 years ago!”

democrats are so great because they slave us tax payers to pay for losers on welfare
Trump is a joke and so are a lot of his racist supporters. Trump is such a great guy because he got one person out of a Mexican jail.Maybe he belonged in jail. Do you idiots even know or care why he was there. You can get any criminal out of a Mexican jail for the right price. We are not at war with Mexico so this guy wasn’t captured in the line of duty. If he got into trouble, he needs to call a lawyer not the president.
http://www.10tv.com/article/trump-unveils-list-donations-veterans-groups trump has gave plenty to vets
as my mom always said the person talking or calling someone racist must be a racist their self
MR TRUMP GAVE MR TAHMOORESSI $ 25,000 TO HELP HIM OUT!!!!!!!!!!! AND YOU DON’T HEAR MR TRUMP SAY ONE WORD ABOUT IT——–THAT’S RIGHT IF OBAMA WOULD HAVE MADE 1 PHONE CALL HE COULD GOT MR TAHMOORESSI OUT BUT HE COULDN’T EVEN DO THAT———WONDERFUL PERSON, NOT——-TRUMP/PENCE 2016
Hello folks I am a US Marine Vet and single dad,raising a 4 year old son by myself. We are at risk of losing our home and facing a power shut off notice. Please share our story and donate if you can gofund.me/emmettshome https://youtu.be/SViJGIYl4m8
I respect Donald Trump for doing this for Sgt. Tahmooressi quietly, not for the purpose of bringing praise to himself, which shows humility. I have never respected Obama and his administration, and the fact that he never intervened on behalf of Sgt. Tahmooressi does not surprise me in the least, especially since he seems to despise our military.
Call to action! NC and Virginia Republican Parties trying to block Trump from Ballot. WE NEED TO BOYCOT VIRGINIA AND NC BUSINESSES AND TELL THEM NOT TO BLOCK TRUMP.
The Political Insider really doesn’t want me to explain how I feel about Obamao. It is not fit for print. Donald Trump is at least a real human being. Maybe it’s time we do give this country to someone who knows how to manage. I can live with that.
I believe that the sitting President Barry Soetoro should be dragged out of the Whitehouse and impaled on a PIKE.
Obama has a venomous hatred for the U.S. Military. If the military was all muslims he’d love that.
TERRI; HURRAH for Trump. Shows he has a heart which the muslim dictator is lacking. Trump never said (SNOPES) Jesus was a Socialist Loser. If you HAD READ THE WHOLE STORY……Donald Trump never said anything like the above. The article published by The Good Lord Above is merely a SPOOF MOCKING some of Trump’s previous grandiose and pejorative comments, such as his criticism of Senator John McCain’s war hero status: YOUR COMMENT SHOWS YOUR IQ IS VERY LOW & YOUR BRAIN DOES NOT ABSORB THE WORDS.
Read more at http://m.snopes.com/donald-trump-jesus-socialist-loser/#gDcIYulVcT56ko1g.99are to read all the story, I will give you a portion….
Trump had a total of 5 draft deferments as a college student until 1969 when the draft lottery was enacted. I believe the highest number reached in this lottery was between 250 and 300. He said his number was close to 360. However in college he was a C student. He only gained entry into college because his father gave million dollar donations and because he is a legend–related to an alumnus. This does not grant him to right to denigrate John McCain for being a POW. If Trump had been in John McCain’s position, he would be just another Jane Fonda.
Trump loves himself! He’s just posturing politically! Go to Snopes.com and read what he said in the article about Jesus being a “Socialist Loser.” He’s a total disgrace. Read the whole thing about Senator John McCain’s war hero status. He said, “He’s not a war hero. He’s a war hero because he was captured. I like people who weren’t captured.” REALLY DONALD???????????? Donald Trump is a rude and crude slob!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@ Terri: John McCain was no hero. He was a POW who broke under torture and collaborated with the enemy. McCain gave up the flight patterns of American bombers allowing the NVA to locate their Surface To Air Missiles (SAM’s) to great effect. The North Vietnamese called John McCain “The Songbird”.
The story on Snopes is false. It was made up by some propaganda artist to muddy the waters. Snopes is not a reliable source and I take nothing they say as the truth. They are just as much left leaning as our Dear Leader. Do a little more research please.
Really Terri? So you don’t mind that Obama traded terrorists from Guantanamo Bay for a deserter and ignored a US soldier? You are pretty vocal about Trump while you support a racist president. Hope you sleep well at night while the country is taking a huge nosedive.
Trump actually loves America and will help our military like a grateful nation should.
Nancy, what do you believe should happen to those that illegally enter the United States?
Those who did not help would criticize those who did but actions speak louder than words.
Just ask Obama what he thinks of Donald Trump.
pres-Obozo..Let 5 Dirt-bag..KILLER’S Out of Gitmo…and then made a BIG DEAL of a…Traitor..and His Parents in Our Rose Garden…DISGUSTING… Wouldn’t do a Damm thing to Help Our AMERICAN MARINE…Just Goes to Show What this… Muslim Loving president…Thinks of Our Military Soldier’s…He Cares More about…Muslim terrorist…Illegal Immigrant’s…and Dividing our People of all Colors…This Man is..NO president..and NEVER WAS…So Sad He Could Have Been….If He Wasn’t So PREJUDICE..HIMSELF!!!
Tahmooreesi tried to drive into Mexico with guns in his car. He committed a serious violation Mexican law. He has a cover story, but it doesn’t add up. In any case, what makes him different from all the other Americans detained at the border because they tried to cross with guns in their cars? Donald Trump is free to spend money on the guy if that’s what he wants to do, but I don’t want my tax dollars spent trying to get criminals out of foreign jails. You do the crime, you do the time.
Nancy, You have the facts wrong. Sgt Tahmooressi had not “tried to drive into Mexico with guns in his car.” He tried to NOT drive into Mexico at all, but the miss-marked roads carried him in. As soon as he was in Mexico he told them of the road error and asked to get turned around. (He had called 911 to report the error prior to reaching the border guards). He let them know right away that he had all his worldly possessions in his car – including his gun.
The Federalis should have directed him to a turn-around; not surrounded him with a swat team.
Nancy you should at least educate yourself before speaking on a subject. You try to sound intelligent in your commentary but facts prove you wrong. Sgt Tahmooressi, who did two tours in Afghanistan, had recently moved to California. One of the reasons was to get help at the VA hospital. He was staying with friends. Everything he owned was in his truck, all of his clothes, everything, including his three guns.On the day of March 31, he drove to the border near Tijuana, parked his car (which is what everyone does to avoid the traffic at the checkpoint) and walked across the walkway into Tijuana. Sometime later — after about 10pm when it was dark — he returned to his car to return to where he was staying in San Diego. Sgt. Tahmooressi took the wrong exit and IF you make the mistake of turning left and thinking you are headed back to San Diego (north) but really heading to Mexico (south), there is no u turn to correct yourself before you drive the hundred yards or so into Mexico. It puts you in an impossible position. You get steered directly in a lane with cement barriers preventing you doing anything but driving into Mexico.
Sgt. Tahmooressi called 911 twice, and told them he was lost and he thought he was in Mexico. Sgt. Tahmooressi reported to the Mexican Border Patrol that he had guns in his car. He told them what happened and the Mexicans decided to imprison him. The rest is history.
That Sgt. Tahmooressi had to spend 214 days in a Mexican jail is his own fault. If he’d have just converted to Islam, Obama would have had him out of there in a heart beat.
Great job, Trump, and Semper Fi, Sgt. Tahmooressi.
Just as Jerry replied I am surprised that any one able to get paid $9625 in four weeks on the computer . i was reading this

THIS GOES TO SHOW YOU HAVE A PRESIDENT THAT WENT TO ALL LENGTH’S TO A DESERTER BERGDAHL TO COME HOME BUT COULDN’T HELP ANOTHER MARINE. THANK YOU DONALD TRUMP FOR WHAT YOU DID. OBAMA SHOULD HAVE BEEN IMPEACHED LONG AGO.
One more reason the wall would help. The crossing he entered Mexico through is poorly designed and if there was a wall with a defined border crossing this poor guy would have been save from loosing almost a year of his life.
That’s our Donald, always there with a helping hand…
Thanks Greta……….. you’re one of the good ones ….
WHAT KIND OF PRESIDENT DO WE HAVE THAT LET SGT. TAHMOORESSI ROT IN MEXICO STINKING JAIL FOR OVER A YEAR. HE DID NOTHING. HE IS A NOTHING PRESIDENT
Trump is clearly the man for the job! He is a good Christian hearted winner who want to maKE AMERICA GREAT again like in the 50’s. Plus I heard Obama smoked his own poop to get high. three words… birth certificate!
Ha ha remember when Trump took credit for that old urban legend about paying off a guy’s mortgage for fixing his tire? Or the $10000 tip for an $82 lunch bill? Or how he said he made $20M betting on Hollyfield versus Tyson?
Trump is a big old liar. He’s a perfect fir for politics.
@Denny … Kool~Aid drinker … You are obviously an oblahblahite. :(
In case you haven’t noticed, YOUR piece of crap president wants to tell EVERYONE, including YOU, how, where, & when to spend their money and on what. Donald Trump did a WONDERFUL thing for our honored, beloved serviceman and his family. YOUR pos did N O T H I N G at all. You think the pos cares about YOU? HA! HOT NEWS HERE: He cares for NONE OF US. That also INCLUDES YOU. Take ohblahblah and shove him up your derriere. He’d enjoy it. Leave President Trump ALONE. Go live in Kenya with YOUR pos failure.
Margie, Why shouldn’t ANY person, rich or poor, be able to pick and choose who they want to help? Isn’t that personal freedom? If YOU think you have the right to make ANYONE spend their money a certain way, then maybe I should start making YOU spend YOUR money in a way I decide. Obama has more of a responsibility to help ALL Americans. Did you write and beg money from Obama? Why aren’t you calling out Obama? And by the way, you could benefit from an English, spelling, syntax and punctuation class. Have a nice day.
It seems awful funny to me , When we asked Trump for a little Help for some MARINES, HE DID NOT RESPONCE.. Now all of a sudden he is helping Marines and letting it be know, I been beefing with him for over 2 years and have written 9 letters , I guess when your rich you can pick and choose who you decided to help out But i am glad he help the guy out, even if i mad at his ass, for not responding to mine ,, I just wish more people would help our Marines,, as they have been forgotten
@Margie You’re disappointed that Trump didn’t help someone that routinely wrote asking/begging for something, but he did help someone that was unjustly locked up in a foreign jail for more than 7 months?
Maybe if you learned to write English it would help?
Mr. Trump has a big heart. He cares about our country & the American people
May God bless you Mr. Trump!!
Trump 2016
He is the Man, our next president.
