DONALD TRUMP DONATES $1BILLION FOR MEXICO HURRICANE PATRICIA RELIEF

LAS VEGAS, Nevada (The Adobo Chronicles) – In an effort to demonstrate his humanitarian side, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has announced that he is donating $1 Billion of his own money to help with relief operations following the expected devastation on Mexico resulting from hurricane Patricia.

Patricia is now being considered as the strongest hurricane ever in history to hit the American continent.

“I know I have been mean to Mexicans throughout the course of my presidential campaign, but I do have a soft spot for the country south of the U.S. border,” Trump said. “If it weren’t for Mexicans, my hotels, casinos and golf courses wouldn’t have been as successful. I love my Mexican employees and they love me,” he added.

Following Trump’s announcement, the government of Mexican President Peña Nieto asked the real estate mogul to immediately issue a cashier’s check so that relief and rehabilitation efforts can begin immediately.
