Except that Nixon was probably not lying about the coat.

In 2013, then-Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi announced she wouldn't bring criminal or civil charges against Trump University, the online for-profit so-called college Donald Trump founded that did not actually offer university courses and was long accused of being a scam designed to defraud vulnerable people looking to get ahead. Bondi made that decision immediately after the Trump Foundation donated $25,000 toward her reelection bid.

Now Trump is putting Bondi in the White House. The Wall Street Journal this afternoon reported the president is hiring two new staff members to assist with public relations and legal strategies to stave off his possible impeachment. One of those two people is supposedly Bondi. https://www.miaminewtimes.com/news/reports-say-pam-bondi-former-florida-attorney-general-will-work-for-trump-white-house-11312711[link:http://|
