It never goes to help the people you are donating for and more than likely goes to pay the multi-million dollar salaries of their two-faced administrators.
And they'll take take TAKE your blood as much as you'll let em. I used to donate regularly & found out years later I had severe anemia. They supposedly test for this pre-donation, but it clearly isn't testing accurately in terms of your long term iron content.
Always necessary to look at the big picture. Because POTUS is POTUS, there will always be things done because of the Office--saying nice things to (and about) tyrants, working with iffy heads of orgs (NRA), sounding interested in bad laws (red flag laws), etc. Just as Q says things that are disinfo sometimes, so does POTUS. Truth is never as literal as we expect it to be. Often, things are said short-term to accomplish some long-term objective. And, no--I'm not rationalizing. Without discernment, this strategy can become an "ends justifies the means" approach. But not necessarily. It can also be an example of speaking to an audience on a level that can understand (encouraging people to give to the Red Cross during an emergency) and not trying to fight two battles at once. It could also be that encouraging people to give to the RC will help expose them. Let the RC think everything is fine and watch what they do.

Obviously I can't speak to why the President choses to do what he does.
