However, the golf simulator transaction appears to have been structured to avoid Florida’s rigorous ethical disclosure requirements, said two governance experts in Florida.
Florida state law requires public officials to file quarterly reports listing all gifts received with a value over $100.
Uthmeier wrote that the loan was “permissible” according to state law and the Governor’s Ethics Code.
Trump paid for his own golf simulator, according to the Washington Post.
According to the list, the “acquisition cost” of both the treadmill and the golf simulator are listed as $1.
