(28,394 posts)1. It was on MSNBC yesterday.
Showed a picture of trump and Melania at a wrestling match with LiButti, a mobster who trump had denied knowing.
Here is just one story about it: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/donald-trump-mobster-casino_us_5819ff2ee4b01f610e3949b2

Trump Plaza was eventually fined $200,000 for discrimination. The hotel was hit with an additional $450,000 fine after the Casino Control Commission discovered that management gave LiButti $1.6 million in the form of luxury cars ― three Ferraris, three Rolls-Royces, a Mercedes-Benz and two Bentleys. LiButti later exchanged the cars for money, which violated state law.
