Let me elucidate that Florida Gubernatorial candidate Tallahassee Andrew Gillum has no Federal or State charges of any kind pending.
A quick summary: candidate Gillum received tickets to the play âHamiltonâ via his brother from an old college friend. The friend was working as a lobbyist / undercover operative for the F.B.I. Â In addition, there was a separate discounted vacation to Costa Rica arranged via the same friend. This resulted in Mayor Gillum commenting and voting favorably on a local land project.
In legal terms what took place is called âQuid Pro Quoâ- âFavor for a Favorâ. Â Â In colloquial terms it is known as the âHook Upâ.
Unless youâre an ingenue or neophyte, you know this type of compromise happens at some level in your life and throughout manâs history. Â Recall the âBarter Systemâ. The Eagles lead singer, Glenn Frey, put it best in his song âSmugglerâs Bluesâ: âit happens every day from the office of the President right down to me and youâ.
Now imagine how much âDirtâ would be found on President Trumpâs administration with just a minimum of digging, compared to looking for sand on Gillium. Just look at the nepotism angle of having your Son in law and Daughter employed as âSenior White House Advisorsâ.
President Trump, please donât be the only President in modern history not to release his taxes. There was no dirt for Presidents Eisenhower, J.F.K., Johnson, Nixon, Ford, Carter, Reagan, G.H.W. Bush, Clinton, G.W. Bush or Obama.
