Presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump has scheduled a news conference today at Trump Tower where he could detail which veteran groups have shared the millions collected at his Iowa fundraiser in January.
Instead of appearing on an Iowa stage with his presidential competitors at a Jan. 28 Republican debate, Trump hosted a "special event to benefit veterans organizations” that night, later saying it raised $6 million.
But it’s now unclear which groups benefited, when they received the money and exactly how much was allocated.
Trump announced last week he had donated $1 million of his own money.
Trump could also use today’s scheduled news conference as an opportunity to criticize the Department of Veterans Affairs and the Obama administration, something he has done recently on the stump and in his tweets.
Organized by an outside Democratic group, veterans are also expected to protest the real estate mogul outside Trump Tower in New York, just after Trump's news conference is scheduled to begin.
