Is that the same thing as what the Clinton's did?
If it is, I don't see it.
Trump wasn't even a political figure back then.
How could there be some expectation that in return for these fees he was going to someday get himself elected and do favors in return?
And who pays for these fees at seminars like this?
Gullible schmucks that pay big bucks to listen to some huckster tell them they too can make all their dreams come true, all they gotta do is stand is front of the mirror in the morning and tell themselves they're awesome.
It's just one of those many scams based on P.T. Barnum's observation that '"there's a sucker born every minute." Yeah, it's sleazy, but it's not the same as the Political "Pay to Play" game.
