The Trump campaign’s largest known bundler is a lobbyist who advised coal and nuclear power company FirstEnergy on its effort to secure a $1.3 billion bailout from Ohio ratepayers and who pleaded the Fifth Amendment when called to testify on his role in a bribery scheme for which the company was criminally charged.
Geoff Verhoff, a senior adviser at public affairs firm Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld, has bundled more than $3.6 million this year for Trump 47 Committee, according to a new filing with the Federal Election Commission. Bundlers collect contributions from other donors and deliver them to campaigns.
