Apparently making America great again includes using charity money to buy memorabilia.

Republican Presidential candidate Donald Trump is under fire amid reports he violated IRS rules by using $12,000 from a charity he owns to purchase an autographed Tim Tebow Broncos helmet amid a bidding war.

Trump won the bidding war at an auction during a Palm Beach fundraiser in 2012, by bidding $12,000 for the helmet and the money came from a charity he founded in 1975, according to The Washington Post.

The Susan G. Komen organization, which raises money and spreads breast cancer awareness, received a $12,000 payment from the Donald J. Trump Foundation. The Post reports that Trump is the president of the foundation, but has given no money to it in three years, as the foundation is largely made up of other people's money.

While delving into Trump's charitable giving through the years, the Post discovered something was amiss with the helmet's acquisition. Law experts also pondered whether or not Trump violated the IRS' rules against "self-dealing," which are designed to keep nonprofit officials from using their charities to benefit themselves.

If he did, the Presidential hopeful may have to pay a tax penalty, but now the items he bought that night aren't as hot of a commodity as he believed they one day would be.

Tebow was on top of the world as the star quarterback of the Broncos back in 2011, leading them to a thrilling overtime playoff victory over the Steelers in the Wild Card round that postseason.

Denver was then demolished by New England the following round and Tebow was traded to the Jets, where he failed to catch on.

These days, the former Heisman trophy winner is out of the NFL after brief stints with the Patriots and Eagles, both of whom cut him before the regular season began.

The former quarterback is now on a reality show "Home Free" and works as an analyst for "SEC Nation," but his football memorabilia isn't what it once was.

The only thing truly notable about the memorabilia now is that Trump may have broken some rules to acquire it.
