Good point! That may be why so few of the states chose to join the case against Trump.

i think if any evidence surfaces that bondi did have knowledge of the "numerous consumer complaints" this will escalate into an investigation.

Well then if she really had no knowledge of the numerous complaints against Trump, she apparently also had no knowledge that her office had officially announced they were looking into complaints about Trump University,just before she received the donation money. I find that unlikely.

Here is a quote from Scott Maxwell from this article, he is the reporter from the Orlando Sentinel who has been following this story for years .
http://www.slate.com/articles/news_a...stigation.html

“One day, Bondi’s office told this newspaper it was reviewing complaints from Floridians who said they felt swindled by the Trump Institute affiliate of Trump University. Four days later, Trump’s foundation cut a $25,000 check to Bondi’s campaign committee. Then, after the check came in, her office decided not to take any action against Trump.”

Yes, I have stated that several times in this thread, you could have saved yourself the trouble of looking it up by looking just a few posts back.

The government investigated itself, and found that it did nothing wrong.

The details of the complaint, and findings are not being released to the public, which is why I said Trump should release what he turned over to the probe. He may be holding onto that for the lawsuit.

Like I've said, if Trump made a mistake, it was in not reporting the other AG's for shaking him down.

Can you provide a link to your post where you call for a public corruption investigation against Hillary, and the Clinton Foundation?

Great now we are arguing over which presidential candidate is more crooked then the other ? Makes me proud to be an American (not) . I wanted Bernie Sanders to win but I guess an honest man does not stand a chance anymore. I take some small comfort in the fact that at least we will probably have the first female president and this has been the first female candidate to run for president of the Democratic party. That is at least small consolation, as a female I have waited a long time to see this happen. But I have to say this whole corruption thing on both sides is a disappointment to me.
