One does wonder whether the $25K political contribution Trump made to Florida’s Attorney General Pam Bondi (through his charitable foundation) was a payoff for her decision not to join a lawsuit against the jerk millionaire candidate’s Trump University for defrauding Florida students.

The facts are pretty clear. If you’ve got a suspicious mind you’d say, as Peggy Noonan did in a different context, “Is it irresponsible to speculate? It is irresponsible not to.” That was the Elian Gonzalez affair which won her the nickname “Our Lady of the Magic Dolphins” because she so credulously believed that the poor Cuban kid was led to American shores by a pod of dolphins.

Mr. Reagan would not have dismissed the story of the dolphins as Christian kitsch, but seen it as possible evidence of the reasonable assumption that God’s creatures had been commanded to protect one of God’s children.

Anyway, questions some journalist should ask Trump:

• Was that a bribe?
• By taking the money shortly after refusing to prosecute, has Trump put Bondi in legal jeopardy?
• If the man won, would this scandal follow him into the White House?
• Are there any other pay-to-play events lying around in Trump’s past?
• Since Rudy Giuliani and Chris Christie both aspire to be AGs in a Trump Administration, could they be prevailed upon to quash these claims?

Inquiring minds want to know.
