Linda McMahon just happened to fork over 7 Million to Trump's campaign. Strangely, she was handed the SBA post.

Oh....so he perjured himself?

Maggio admitted that his decision to remit the judgment was improperly influenced by the donations that his campaign received from the business owner. Maggio further acknowledged that he attempted to delete text messages between the campaign fundraiser and himself after the contributions from the business owner were disclosed by the media.
