ABC News has learned that Vander Plaats tried to solicit money for his endorsement during the last presidential cycle too. A former staffer for Mitt Romney's 2008 presidential bid who is currently unaffiliated with a campaign said Vander Plaats came to them seeking money for his backing if he supported the former Massachusetts governor.

"He wanted to be paid," the former staffer said. "He was clearly looking for a paycheck. There was a conversation about him getting a title, but being a paid consultant was much more important."

Bobby, Your endorsement has never been for sale? This report from 2011 says otherwise. You tried to shake down Santorum for $1m in 2011, Romney in 2008 and also Trump in 2016. All of them refused.

Ron DeSantis and his backers paid $95,000 to an Iowa religious leader’s group
August 12, 2023

Excerpt:
“The DeSantis campaign, a super PAC linked to him and a nonprofit group supporting him together paid $95,000 in recent months to the Family Leader Foundation, an Iowa-based nonprofit led by evangelical leader Bob Vander Plaats, according to campaign finance reports and a document prepared by an Iowa state lawmaker who was helping the Vander Plaats organization raise money for a July 14 presidential candidate forum.”

Trump wingman Vivek and deep state Trump UN pick Nimradda both paid 95k as well as RDS for 3 pages of ads in a booklet. They also pay for ads on TV and radio. That’s how advertising works. The only free advertising Ron De Santis gets is whenever Trump obsessively rants into the early morning hours about DeSantis not dropping out. Trump’s desperation for DeSantis to drop out speaks volumes as to the actual state of Trump’s campaign.

The FACT is that Trump tried to bribe VanderPlaats for his endorsement, and when he failed to do so, accused his opponent of what he tried to do.

(Which, come to think of it, if it were true, would mean his opponent could carry out his policies better than he can.)

ABC “News” is not a credible source.
