Trump's Foundation Troubles

[bullypulpit]

This headline from the Washington Post caught my eye the other day:
Donald Trump plans to shut down his charitable foundation, which has been under scrutiny for months

(https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/post-politics/wp/2016/12/24/donald-trump-plans-to-shut-down-his-charitable-foundation-which-has-been-under-scrutiny-for-months/)Now, this seemed to me like a case of the crack dealer trying to flush his merchandise down the toilet as the police are kicking in the door. But then, today, there was this headline:

Trump Foundation cannot dissolve amid investigation into charity spending

Ahhh...The schadenfreude is delicious. Pass the popcorn please.
