Discussion: Florida AG Asked Trump for Donation Before Nixing Trump U Lawsuit

When will Republican women finally break through the glass-ceiling and get the $35,000 in bribes to drop charges and lawsuits against Trump like their male counterparts, instead of this sexist $25,000 crap?

If a Democratic AG had solicited and obtained a bribe from a presidential candidate you can bet we’d be hearing about it on every news channel. But since it’s a Republican the response will just be ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Okay, much clearer timing than the Texas case.

Of course, Hillary still hasn’t released the transcripts of those Wall Street speeches, which is obviously a bigger deal than buying non-justice. And, now that I think of it, Trump probably figures that only taking bribes is corruption - offering them is just good business practice.

Ms. AG, you asked for a bribe, then did the quid pro quo? Wouldn’t you want to put someone behind bars for such a stunt?

“Bondi’s office said that its statement about receiving only a single complaint was accurate at the time because most of the complaints dealt with the Trump Institute, a separate corporate entity from Trump University.”

Which, itself, was separate from the Trump Family Foundation, the Ivanka Trump Foundation, The Trump Organization, and the other 515 subsidiaries bearing Trump’s name.

See – totally unrelated to Trump.

“When I want something I get it,” the presumptive Republican nominee said at an Iowa rally in January. “When I call, they kiss my ass. It’s true.”

Now that’s a pretty picture—Pam’s immaculately lipsticked lips firmly planted on Donald’s pimply, dimpled derriere.

So, seeing as how election laws are a joke in this country - does this matter?

While the Bondi quid pro quo seems blatantly obvious, it does make the Texas case far more precarious because it shows Donald’s MO. Abbott got the promise of a large campaign donation for his future run for TX guv, something he most definitely has in his sights when he dismissed Donald’s case.

And, from what I’d read previously, the TX payout was also from the charitable foundation which means Donald is likely looking at a few more audits very, very soon.

She’s about to learn that the only thing worse than being held up for $25,000 by Trump University – is taking $25,000 from it.

Come om, MSM! This is a Pulitzer for someone. A Woodward and Bernstein moment. Rise to the occasion! Please!

Good point on the MO; how well-established is the promise in the Texas case, or was it simply implied?

$25K donation received only four days after she suggested FL might join the lawsuit. What an amazing coincidence! (snort)
