The swirl of scandal around Donald Trump’s donation to Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi is intensifying, with the Republican nominee and his aides vigorously pushing back against the idea that he bought the decision by Bondi to not pursue an investigation into his Trump University.

The controversy whipped back up last week when news emerged that Trump paid a $2,500 fine because his foundation improperly donated $25,000 to Bondi’s political election committee in 2013 (tax-exempt charitable groups are not allowed to make political contributions).

Following the donation in 2013, Bondi’s office declined to join a fledgling multi-state probe into Trump’s real estate seminar program. The links between the two continued, with Trump hosting a lavish fundraiser for Bondi at his Mar-a-Lago resort in March 2014, and Bondi endorsing Trump in March of this year.
While Trump and Bondi say there’s no fire underneath the smoke, the Manhattan businessman’s political wheelings and dealings are now drawing more scrutiny, especially because Trump’s campaign has been driving hard at the idea that Hillary Clinton engaged in pay for play through her Clinton Foundation and her tenure at the State Department.

Donald Trump won the Republican primary largely by playing on his persona as a straight-talking businessman who scoffed at political correctness. He didn’t need to pretend to be an honorable man while trading money for influence in an opaque system that other politicians participate in even while bemoaning it. He was the answer to the political version of the question that a narrator used to ask during the opening crawl of MTV’s “The Real World”: What happens when a presidential candidate stops being polite and starts getting real?

Thus he could openly brag about how he donated money to politicians in order to buy favors from them. “As a businessman and a very substantial donor to very important people, when you give, they do whatever the hell you want them to do,” he told The Wall Street Journal last summer. A few weeks later onstage at the first Republican primary debate, he said, “I give to everybody. When they call, I give. And you know what? When I need something from them, two years later, three years later, I call them, and they are there for me.” Campaigning in Iowa last winter, he said of his donations to politicians, “When I call, they kiss my ass.”

It was a simple truth, one that everyone knew but still seemed surprised to hear acknowledged. So it is a little jarring to see Trump and his campaign trying to spin away what looks like an obvious case of doing exactly what he has told the public he has done over and over again.

The story of Trump’s entanglement with Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi certainly sounds like a classic pay-for-play scheme. In the fall of 2013, Bondi’s office was reviewing whether to pursue fraud charges against Trump University, which involved the mogul’s real estate training seminar that disillusioned students claimed had scammed them out of thousands of dollars. Then the Donald J. Trump Foundation made a $25,000 donation to a political group connected to Bondi, who was gearing up to run for re-election.

just caught the tail end of his take on the Bondi story a minute ago, in which he played the kiss my ass clip, just after something with bondi and a st. Bernard on a couch, which I missed.

make sure to go to CBS and see the clip when it's up. dems should just hire him for their ad man. everything he's done is FAR superior to the heavy handed dreck they've put up. if they're going to do anything ad-wise, ALL they have to do is play a series of trump in his own words--NOTHING else. he hoists himself on his own petard whenever he's not attached at the lip to a prompter

no need for slick/lame Madison avenue schmalzing it up.

all trump, all the time. biggest ahole that ever lived.

I'll have to look for it online. I haven't watched much late night TV since David Letterman left.

We can't let this Trump-Bondi scandal recede from the public's attention. New details are coming to light; the story is still unfolding.

"Because you're a woman."

That would fit the cheeto I think.

That is the only question.

What a crook.

The DOJ should take action.

Bondi should be dismissed and charged.

Let's not forget Bridgegate.

Your OP was briliiant.

Great work.
