.......................Aside from deceiving Cuban-Americans, records of the 1998 initiatives show that Trump lied to voters about his efforts in Florida during that period. At the second Republican presidential debate in September 2015, one of Trump’s rivals, Jeb Bush, said the billionaire had tried to buy him off with favors and contributions when he was Florida’s governor in an effort to legalize casino gambling in the state. “Totally false,’’ Trump responded. “I would have gotten it.”..........................

1. Jeb mentioned this during their debates with an air of disdain

Like, how could anyone stoop to take a pay-out from such a low-rent bounder as Trump?

Had he had better political sense he would have throttled Trump with it over and over again. The whole thing was beneath his blue blood sensibility: "this real estate trash with a $40,000 casino payoff? The whole thing is so tawdry."

The Bushes play this hail fellow well met thing, but they're essentially Connecticut blue bloods. They think Trump is trash, which is also why you don't see Dubya anywhere near him. He wouldn't piss on Trump if he was on fire.

2. He's only sorry he didn't think of it first -- except he's forgotten he actually did it.

Trump responded. "I would have gotten it."

He lost at that gambit.

Apparently Trump company billing statements / documents prove he tried it.

Seems to be bribery.

Bribery is illegal.
