If you're having a hard time keeping up with all of President-elect Donald Trump's nominations for his Cabinet, you aren't alone. Because after people got used to the idea of Matt Gaetz as Trump's pick for the United States attorney general, he withdrew. Now, Trump nominated former Florida attorney general Pam Bondi. Naturally, many are curious about who she is, her net worth, and what she brings to the table in terms of politics.
As a Trump supporter and someone who Trump himself supports, Bondi's political views mostly align with his. She was also one of Trump's attorneys during his impeachment trial. The pair have a close and long working relationship. Now, Bondi is likely going to be part of his second term, and there is plenty to know about the pick for U.S. attorney general.
What is Pam Bondi's net worth?
According to her financial filings in 2016, Bondi's net worth was around $1.7 million in 2017. Since then, however, her career has rosen and apparently so has her personal wealth. Due to political donations made to Bondi from Trump and from the Church of Scientology, Bondi's net worth is rumored to be higher than what it was earlier in her career. However, as of now, the confirmed amount for Bondi's net worth sits at just below $2 million.
