WASHINGTON -- Donald Trump knew a man he named as a senior business adviser in 2010 had been convicted in a major Mafia-linked stock fraud scheme, according to Associated Press interviews and a review of court records.
Trump had worked with Felix Sater previously during the man's stint as an executive at Bayrock Group LLC, a real estate development firm that partnered with Trump on numerous projects after renting office space from the Trump Organization. But Sater's past was not widely known at the time because he was working as a government cooperator on mob cases and the judge overseeing Sater's own case kept the proceedings secret. After Sater's criminal history and past ties to organized crime came to light in 2007, Trump distanced himself from Sater.
Less than three years later, however, Trump tapped Sater for a business development role that came with the title of senior adviser to Donald Trump. Sater received Trump Organization business cards and was given an office within the Trump Organization's headquarters, on the same floor as Trump's own.

How amazing! Trump hires a mobster who helps run a PERFECT campaign with no scams, pacs or BRIBES, but Ted Cruz can’t find anyone to do the same!
SOME people get it!

When was the guy convicted, and what was the charge?
A judge covered up his past and when Trump found out the truth he dumped him. And so?
IBTZ
hit and run all through the site is what he has been doing all day. Time for this troll to leave. If he were to stay and fight for what he believes that would be a whole other story.

Actually this story came out five months ago, it was and is a big nothing burger, but the Cruz dirty trick machine is DESPERATE.
I think everyone on this site NEEDS to get a grip with bashing Trump and realize that NOTHING will change our minds!!!! With ALL of the current corruption in our government NOTHING and I mean NOTHING seems comparable!!!! So PLEASE all of you Trump badgers stick a sock in it!!! He’s our guy and WE will live with it!!!!!
“And which candidate is closely associated with the company who was just fined BILLIONS for fraud?”
That would be Donald Trump who borrowed $480,000,000 from a Goldman Sachs led consortium of banks.
Just wish some of our posters who are VERY good at doing research would just look at some of Trump’s dealings.
Don’t think it would change their support!
Just
WHO CARES, etc, etc.
It’s not a crime to borrow money slick.
Hillary and Ted share the honor of being subsidiaries of Goldman. But it doesn’t answer my question. When was this guy convicted, and of what was he convicted.
BFD. We had a President that was a felon, SWTBD
My first thought too. Ties to people that can get things done.
Things are heating up, MM... remember the mob has a smidgen of ethics, Goldman Sachs does not.
