The "Saudi Arabia gave $20 million" was a Trump campaign thing. Trump demanded Clinton return the "$25 million" Saudi Arabia has given to the Clinton Foundation. https://www.facebook.com/DonaldTrump...7164335365725#

When pressed, the Trump campaign, of course, could provide no evidence of any money having come from Saudi Arabia.

Despite non-profits not being required to disclose their donors, the Clinton Foundation largely has, Politifact learned the following:

Quote:
It’s now possible to look up donation amounts on the Clinton Foundation’s website. Using Trump’s Saudi Arabia example, Saudi Arabia shows up as having given between $10 million and $25 million since the foundation started [in 1997].
It took me 4 minutes to learn all this information by googling "Trump Clinton Saudi Arabia 20 million"

In regards to campaign promises, Trump thus far has achieved 9 of his campaign promises, broken 13, compromised on 2, begun progress on 17, and had no action on 138.
