He additional alleged that Oprah Winfrey acquired $3 million in “expenses,” whereas Reverend Al Sharpton was paid $600,000, regardless of being a “very low rated TV anchor,” in response to Trump. “They did absolutely NOTHING,” he wrote.“These ridiculous fees were incorrectly stated in the books and records,” Trump claimed, including that “YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO PAY FOR AN ENDORSEMENT. IT IS TOTALLY ILLEGAL TO DO SO.”The US president demanded prosecution of Vice President Kamala Harris and others concerned, stating that if politicians started paying for endorsements, “all hell would break out.” “Kamala, and all of those that received Endorsement money, BROKE THE LAW. They should all be prosecuted! Thank you for your attention to this matter,” he additional added.
