There's a lot of dirty stuff going on in FL or was when Jerk! was gov. When I visited the Naples area, the whole state was being torn up right down to the Everglades with illegal wetlands development. I really wonder about these casinos.http://www.vanityfair.com/news/2015/09/trump-bush-gop-debate
During Wednesday nights G.O.P. debate, former Florida governor Jeb Bush attempted to counter Donald Trumps characterization of him as low energy. In the debate's first hour, CNN host Jake Tapper asked Bush about his $100 million in super-PAC moneyspecifically, Trumps criticism of his having a super-PAC in the first place. Bush took the opportunity to counterpunch, bringing up what he said was Trumps attempt to lobby his way (via giving Bush money) into building casinos in Florida.
It turned into a big exchange of No, I didnts and Yes, you dids. Literally:
Trump: No, I didnt.
Bush: Yes, you did.
Trump: Totally false.
Bush: You wanted it and you didnt get it. I was opposed to casino gambling before
Trump: I promise I would have gotten
Bush: during, and after! Im not going to be bought by anyone.
Trump: I promise, if I wanted it, I would have got it.
Bush: Not even possible.
Trump: I know my people.

(25,241 posts)1. Is Trump Saying - Everybody Has Their Price?.....
When he says, "I promise, if I wanted it, I would have got it." Did he mean - he would have made an offer one couldn't refuse?

These guys are discussing such a deal. Good thing for ! he said no. He's not a bright guy but at least he has some scruples (maybe).
