Trump is a private citizen (i.e., non-state official/politician) who is running for federal office—Ergo, the restrictions don’t apply to him.

He’s better off without their money. It will look better when he takes them down. Course then the knock will be he is attacking them because they refused to donate.

Wrong, ye defender of Golden Sacks.

" The email also says that the rule applies to any "governor running for president or vice president, such as the Trump/Pence ticket." Vice presidential candidate Mike Pence is the governor of Indiana. Donations to Trump and Pence's PACs or Super PACs will also not be allowed.
"However, the new guidelines don't prohibit Goldman's top brass from donating to Hillary Clinton and Tim Kaine. Kaine is a U.S. senator and Clinton doesn't hold any current office. "
