Florida AG asked Trump for donation before nixing fraud case

WASHINGTON (AP) — Florida's attorney general personally solicited a political contribution from Donald Trump around the same time her office deliberated joining an investigation of alleged fraud at Trump University and its affiliates

The new disclosure from Attorney General Pam Bondi's spokesman to The Associated Press on Monday provides additional details around the unusual circumstances of Trump's $25,000 donation to Bondi.

In the old days, we used to call that a bribe.

need intense investigation...like NOW.

Here's Trump's own words: As a businessman, Trump explained, “I've got to give to them, because when I want something, I get it. When I call, they kiss my ass.”

Every day, this racist-pig, con man becomes even more disgusting than the last (and I didn't think that was possible)
