Trump Accused Of A Federal Crime On Same Day He Accepts The Republican Nomination

[meow2u3]

Donald Trump is facing a new complaint that his use of the Trump Organization to do his campaign work is a violation of federal law.

The Democratic Coalition Against Trump announced their FEC complaint against the GOP nominee in a statement:

This morning the Democratic Coalition Against Trump filed a federal campaign complaint against Donald Trump’s Presidential campaign with the Federal Elections Commission. The complaint alleges five violations including illegally accepting direct corporate contributions, accepting services from a volunteer that were actually compensated, use of the Trump corporate name or trademark to facilitate campaign contributions, illegal use of corporate facilities by a campaign volunteer, and knowingly allowing volunteers to exceed the transportation expense limit.

Meredith McIver, a speechwriter for the Trump campaign, released her plagiarism apology letter yesterday made on the Trump Organization letterhead that stated she was working via the corporation to perform campaign responsibilities. The Trump campaign responded to calls from the Coalition for clarification, where Trump’s spokesman claimed that McIver was serving in a volunteer capacity to the campaign.

The article goes on to mention that Drumpf, by his unflattering nicknames he gave to his political opponents, is really describing himself to a T.

On a side note: just watch--the Trumpanzees will whine that Democrats are desperate to bring down the Yammering Yam.

1. I have to wonder

how many elections laws the campaign has broken. They clearly don't know what they are doing and Trump thinks he is above rules and regulations.

We are. I would rather kick his ass in November than remove him from the running. I believe he is truly destroying them.

4. Lots of details of this story in a compilation thread here:

Best detail: If the campaign used corporate resources "willingly and knowingly," the offense is a criminal one.

I suggested Lawyer up Donald ... now would be a good time to exercise your right to remain silent.
