Trump Camp Walks Back His Claim That He 'Never' Spoke With FL AG Pam Bondi

Source: Talking Points Memo

The Donald Trump campaign Tuesday walked back remarks the GOP nominee made Monday denying any communications with Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi before his 2013 donation in support of her campaign.

According to Trump campaign spokeswoman Hope Hicks, when Trump told reporters he "never" spoke to Bondi about "it," he meant that he never spoke to her about Trump University, which Bondi was considering suing at the time of the contribution. “His comments were in reference to any discussion about Trump University — not the donation,” Hicks told Politico.

In a separate AP report Tuesday, Hicks was unable to elaborate on the content of their conversation.

"I don't think this was a lengthy, memorable call," Hicks said. "Mr. Trump talks to a hundred people in any given day. So, I don't know if I will be able to provide that information. That's not exactly a realistic or reasonable request."

maybe a lie???? can't be..
Is it he?
What will we see?
.........oh...I know.........................He is a fucken liar.......

Yes Indeed....that is who he is......

Say it ain't so....Shoeless Joe.......... .................

(say it ain't so...a reference to Shoeless Joe Jackson who took bribes to throw the 1919 World Series..The Chicago White Sox lost to the Reds and Joe and 6 other players took bribes of $5,000 each to throw the series..Keep in mind, that $5000 in 1919, would equal about $200,000 or more in today's money... The story goes, (never verified, and Joe said it never happened about this kids story..(he admitted taking the bribes) ..that some kids who admired him, asked him after a game...Say it ain't so...Shoeless Joe,.....and he is supposed to have said...Yes it is true, and he walked away)...........

So....it is ugly mean.... ......Trump is a fucken liar...he always lies, he always has and he always will!!!

Joe was eventually banned for life from playing major league baseball...

"I really hope this was not a lengthy, memorable call," Hicks said.

There, I fixed it.

Here's how that could happen.

"A donation would help"
"A check's on the way"
"Forget we ever talked"
