Actor Dave Bautista offers $20,000 in case of manatee scraped with word 'TRUMP'

By Lauren M. Johnson, CNN

There is already a reward for information leading to the person or people responsible for writing "TRUMP" on a manatee in Florida, but actor Dave Bautista is taking it a step further.

The "Guardians of the Galaxy" star announced an additional reward on his Twitter account on Monday.
"If there's not already a reward for the arrest and conviction of the low life scummy MAGATs that did this I'll throw in $20,000. And I promise there will be bonuses to that reward!" he said.

The manatee was discovered on January 10 in Florida's Homosassa River with the President's name scraped on its back, according to a news release from the Center for Biological Diversity.

Dave is adding to the reward for catching the vermin that did this.

"If there's not already a reward for the arrest and conviction of the low life scummy MAGATs that did this I'll throw in $20,000. And I promise there will be bonuses to that reward!" he said.

I gave support for his stepping up.
I don't understand your objection.

The poster was referring to the cruelty to the manatee. I think we’re all pleased with the reward offer. Someone knows something n that amount is pretty substantial. They’ll get em.

that could make one MAGAt turn on another MAGAt. Just think of all the Trump merchandise you could buy with that kind of money!
