Trump virtually bragged in Arizona that he is selling presidential favors in exchange for contributions to his campaign.

Trump said, “I call the head of Exxon. I don’t know. I’ll use a company. Hi, how, how are you doing, how’s energy coming? When are doing the exploration? Oh, you need a couple of permits, huh?

Trump admitted that he is selling presidential favors in exchange for campaign contributions. Trump was talking about a form of quid pro quo bribery. In Trump’s example, he was saying that he would give Exxon the permits that they wanted if they donated $25 million to his reelection campaign.
