The city decided against pursuing legal action against the Sanders and Trump campaigns due to the potential costs, which might have outweighed any potential financial recovery and placed the burden for legal fees on taxpayers, Squire said.

Pathetic. Straight up admitting the city will only go after working class people while leaving rich people off the hook for $80k bills. Pursue legal action and have Trump pay the legal fees of both parties when he loses.
