CNN is reporting that the Trump campaign in 2016 apparently refused a request for help from a Nigerian Prince in a deep financial turmoil. This refusal of foreign aid to the deeply troubled African country only proves what an absolute racist Donald Trump is!
The Nigerian Official reportedly sent the Trump campaign a desperate plea for help via his only means of communication which was E-mail. This desperate plea for help on behalf of his country and his people was summarily filtered to the SPAM folder on the Trump Campaign E-mail server in a callous act of indifference!
The Trump campaign claims it DIDN'T EVEN KNOW about the E-mail that was sent to them!
But Kevin Spacey did grab the Nigerian Prince’s “package”, so at least we have that going for us...
Nigerian #419
Actually, I’ll bet the Nigerian Prince wanted to make a campaign contribution for $100, but there was some problem so he had a plan ..... he would send Trump a check for $10 Million .... all Trump had to do was keep the $100 and send the Nigerian Prince a check back for $9,999,900. Easy, peasy!
Fortunately, I was able to give him all of my financial information. Your loss is my gain!

I received an email from Secretary of State Tillerson telling I can have my $1.83 million if I pay a small fee
Chelsea’s FIL fell for this Nigerian scam....sentenced to 5 years in a federal lockup for fleecing people.....even his MIL.
Onetime Congressman Ed Mezvinsky was convicted in 2002 of bilking his associates, friends and family members — even his own late mother-in-law — out of millions of dollars. Despite being released in April 2008 after serving five years in prison, Mezvinsky remains on federal probation and still owes almost $9.4 million in restitution to his victims.
An ABC News investigation revealed that Mezvinsky, a former Democratic Congressman from Iowa, had been caught up in a series of Nigerian e-mail scams and began to steal from people to further his schemes.
“He was always looking for the home run. He was always trying to find the business deal that would make him as wealthy as all the people in his social circle,” said federal prosecutor Bob Zauzmer. According to Zauzmer, Mezvinsky, who is now 72, will be on supervised release, the federal version of probation, until 2011.
ABC News was unable to reach Ed Mezvinsky for a response, but did reach his ex-wife Marjorie. Marjorie Margolies-Mezvinsky refused to comment on whether or not her ex-husband would be attending their son’s wedding, referring all questions to a Clinton family spokesperson. Margolies-Mezvinsky did confirm that no wedding date has yet been set.
Asked whether Ed Mezvinsky would be attending the wedding, a spokesperson for former President Bill Clinton said he didn’t know. “I don’t know anything at this point beyond the fact that they’re engaged,” Matt McKenna told ABC News in an e-mail.
In their heyday, Ed Mezvinsky and his then wife Marjorie, herself a former Democratic congresswoman from Pennsylvania as well as an ex-TV reporter, were part of the political and social elite in Philadelphia. The Mezvinskys were close to Bill and Hillary Clinton and were frequent guests at the White House. Prosecutors say Mezvinsky exploited his ties to the Clintons, including his son’s relationship with Chelsea, to woo investors to contribute more money to his schemes.
Mezvinsky used those funds to travel to Nigeria to pursue one hare-brained scheme after another. He ultimately lost more than $3 million to the scammers, falling especially hard for the notorious “black money” scam, where victims are told millions of dollars have been coated with black ink so the money could be smuggled out of Nigeria. The scammers then offer to sell a special, expensive chemical to clean the ink off of the money. Prosecutors say Mezvinsky fell for at least three separate “black money” schemes.
Mezvinsky pleaded guilty to more than 30 counts of fraud, and was sentenced to 80 months in federal prison. He has blamed bipolar disorder for his behavior.
In an interview with Des Moines Register from prison in 2003, Mezvinsky said he found the scam convincing. “The man later came out with a chemical, threw it on the money, and it all turned to $100 bills. He gave me 10 to have them tested back home. And they were real,” Mezvinsky told the Register.
Are you kidding this will be up as breaking news at CNN at the top of the hour.
And it won't be The Globe.
The same prince contacted me and I told him that while I was short on money, he could contact Trump and Trump would help him out.
proves he is a racist
My, my.......you’re so helpful.
Had Donald been cool and hip like Obama, he would have had a custom made, "secure" BlackBerry and known about the eMail.
On second thought,perhaps it was a Kenyan who sent the eMail???
That’s nothing. I get request for aid from lots of Nigerian princes every year.
After paying out several thousand dollars in “good faith” deposits, I’m expecting my millions any day.
I paid them with part of my hoard of Iraqi dollars, explaining to them that I have been assured that those Iraqi dollars will be redeemed at face value against the US dollar very soon.
