Audio: WAMU Story Highlights Unethical VA GOP Fundraiser Tonight with Sean Spicer at Trump Golf Club in Sterling

The key quote in this story (audio below) comes from Norm Eisen, co-founder of the government watchdog group CREW or Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington: “There’s something very unique here, and that is that the property that the Republicans are having this event at is a property that’s owned by Donald Trump. And they’re throwing in the presence of a senior White House staffer almost as a party favor…I never would have allowed a White House staffer to go and speak at a property owned by the president where the president was going to get a financial profit for that. It comes too close to the line of using public office for private gain” So…any comment from Rep. Barbara Comstock (R-10th)?  Is she ok with this, as clearly the VA GOP is (they said they see “no ethics violation” here, even thought it’s a glaring ethics violation)?
