New Clinton ad hits Trump's 'corrupt politics'
By Nick Gass
Hours after the New York attorney general opened an investigation into the Donald J. Trump Foundation, Hillary Clinton released a new web ad Wednesday attacking the Republican nominee for "corrupt politics" with his foundation.
"You’ve probably heard Trump talk about the Clinton Foundation, but you might not have heard that while he attacks one of America’s top charities, his foundation has been fined for an illegal donation," a narrator intones, as graphics showing the Clinton Foundation's top ratings from Charity Watch, GuideStar and Charity Navigator are displayed on screen.
The ad specifically refers to the $2,500 fine Trump paid to the Internal Revenue Service after it was revealed that a $25,000 donation from the foundation was made in 2013 to Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi as her office considered whether to pursue a fraud investigation into Trump University, the real-estate seminar program that the ad refers to as a "sham university."
"She cashed the check, blocked the case, and he tried to cover up the donation," the ad alleges, before concluding with a picture of a hard hat-wearing Trump grinning in front of workers. "So, when you hear Donald Trump talk about corrupt politics, remember which candidate actually practices it."
