He made no effort to set up a nonprofit, which has to be set up before soliciting money, in fact there's no way students could even apply for the grant. It was heavily promoted by Breitbart.

If this post was sarcastic (which I really hope it is), ditto.

He actually was honest that he did not yet have 501(c)(3) status for the fund yet.

This is why you never donate to a non-reputable charity.

He markets himself as an internet supervillain. If he had actually donated it to charity someone surely would have sued him for false advertising.

lesson: Never give money to a charity that is trying to make an edgy statement.  They'll forget all about the cause and the people they were claiming to help once the next edgy thing comes along.

Funny that most of Milo's disappointed donors probably shared memes with Bernie Sanders saying "no refunds".

I wonder what kind of ostentatious, trashy, tacky things he'll spend the money on.

At least he's "better" at playing this game than Trump who gave million s to a fake " veteran's" "organization" without doing any vetting on them

As I've been saying for a while now: most successful internet troll ever.

His fanboys deserve no sympathy for taking the bait.
