GOP Bought a Lemon (and Its Family)


Trump has spent more than $4.5 million of campaign funds on legal costs since the beginning of his campaign.

I wonder if people still giving money to the Trump campaign for 2020 know where their money is going.
So long as Trump is only paying expenses incurred from the parts of the investigation related to his campaign, it’s legal for the president to use his campaign donations to pay legal expenses or the legal expenses for Trump Jr., said Larry Noble, senior director at the Campaign Legal Center.
No wonder they get nervous when Mueller's team talks about investigating other possible criminal activity.
Since the payments were made within days of the end of the filing period, they may represent only a small portion of the amount that is now being billed to Trump’s campaign by Futerfas [Junior's attorney] and the Trump Corporation.

The Trump campaign racked up multiple lawsuits, including suits stemming from violent incidents at rallies and alleged copyright infringement. In one case, a former campaign staffer alleged the campaign failed to act when Trump’s North Carolina state director twice pulled a gun on campaign employees.

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
