Floridas attorney general personally solicited a political contribution from Donald Trump around the same time her office deliberated joining an investigation of alleged fraud at Trump University and its affiliates
The new disclosure from Attorney General Pam Bondis spokesman to The Associated Press on Monday provides additional details around the unusual circumstances of Trumps $25,000 donation to Bondi. After the money came in, Bondis office nixed suing Trump.
Marc Reichelderfer, a political consultant who worked for Bondis re-election effort and fielded questions on the donation at her request, told AP that Bondi spoke with Trump several weeks before her office publicly announced it was deliberating whether to join a multi-state lawsuit proposed by New Yorks Democratic attorney general. Reichelfelder said Bondi was unaware of dozens of consumer complaints received by her office about Trump University filed before she requested the donation.
The process took at least several weeks, from the time they spoke to the time they received the contribution, Reichelderfer told AP.
