    Well isn't that just COZY! Pam Bondi is a USELESS Republican hack in Florida. But she is a 'hot blonde'. Maybe that's why Trump gave her a $25,000 donation--in error. But I'm going with, she was starting her probe of TRUMP UNIV. He should have sat tight. I doubt seriously he would have had any adverse outcome being a REPUBLICAN with lots of money. Afterall it is FLORIDA!

    (She got some bad press a couple of years ago for DELAYING AN EXECUTION so she could go to a fundraiser in a different part of the state. Poor baby!)

    Trump Foundation admits error in donation to Florida attorney general campaign
    By MAGGIE SEVERNS 03/22/16 02:00 PM EDT

    Donald Trump’s campaign said Tuesday that a series of clerical mistakes is responsible for an apparent failure by Trump’s foundation to report a political donation on its taxes.

    Trump donated $25,000 from his foundation, which as a nonprofit is not supposed to aid political candidates, to a group backing Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi in 2013. The money came under scrutiny at the time because Trump donated the money just days after Bondi announced she was investigating complaints surrounding Trump’s real estate school, Trump University.

    But Monday, the good-government group Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington also filed a complaint with the IRS because it says the Trump Foundation didn’t report the donation on its tax returns...

    You misanthropic cynic you! There is absolutely no connection between that heart felt donation by the Trump Foundation to Pammy the AG, and the probe announced days earlier by the same AG's office of the venerable Trump University. The failure to report the donation was of course a systems failure.

    Cynics like you may sneer and ask how long a series of clerical errors it takes, to err in both making the original donation, and then to fail in reporting the original donation.

    There are lots of sloppy secretaries out there, you know. I am sure the Trump foundation has more than one!
