Trump was longtime friends with Egypt...it's perfectly normal for a country you've been friends with so long to give you $10 million.

And it was just ever-so-coincidental that Trump put $10m of "his own money" (cough cough) into his election war-chest at about the same time. It certainly wasn't Egypt donating money to try to get trump elected!
