Florida's equivalent of a state treasurer wrote a letter to former President Trump, urging him to recoup an estimated $54,000 through the state's unclaimed property program to help defend against the "very, very nasty people" coming after him.
Florida Chief Financial Officer (CFO) Jimmy Patronis told Trump in the letter that the state is proud to host several Trump properties and count him as a resident and that he admires the real estate mogul as a former small business owner for his attention to the customer.
