BREAKING: Anti-Trump President Of NYC Metropolitan GOP Club Broke FEC Laws To Donate To Democratic @SenSchumer
Deborah Coughlin, the president of New York City’s elite Metropolitan Republican Club that recently wrongly and forcibly removed all Trump supporters from its board, broke federal campaign finance laws in order to donate thousands of dollars to Democratic New York Senator Chuck Schumer in 2003.
Schumer has been one of the most anti-Trump Senators since President Donald J. Trump took office in January.
In a story that GotNews broke and that the New York Post has now picked up, a deeper dive into the financials surrounding the scandal-plagued board of New York City’s Metropolitan Republican Club has produced more troubling questions: what are the political views of the people running this New York City GOP club?
Five Trump supporters and long-time club members – Georgia Palmieri, Alain Palmieri, Michael Javelos, Allan Stevo, and Sandra Chase – were wrongly and forcibly removed from the board of the elite Upper East Side club because of their support of President Donald J. Trump by Club President Deborah Coughlin (2015-2017), Secretary Jeff Charles Goolsby, Chairman Ian Walsh Reilly, the son of former club President Robert Morgan III (2006-2012), and former club President Peter Hein (1980-1985).
It is really telling how some people can get away with flagrant violations but other people get the book thrown at them - case in point Dinesh D'Souza who made the same kind of over-the-limit contribution to a candidate for the New York State Senate and was sentenced to eight months of confinement at a correctional center and five years probation.
