The former presidentās PAC are operating as slush funds to help him fight off a mountain of civil and criminal cases
Donald Trumpās PACs spent a staggering $50 million on the former presidentās legal defense in 2023, according to a report from The New York Times.
According to two sources who spoke to the Times, the former presidentās massive legal bills were paid out through funds from the Save America PAC and the Make America Great Again PAC, his two primary political action committees. The full details of the PAC spending will be made available Wednesday, the deadline for Federal Election Commission year-end campaign filings.
Given the multiple civil and criminal cases leveled against Trump in the last year, the mountain of legal bills is not necessarily a surprise. In August of last year, Save America revealed that it had burned through the majority of its cash-on-hand on Trump and his associatesā legal defenses. The Times reported at the time that Save America had requested a $60 million refund from another Trump-affiliated group to keep itself afloat.
According to the Times, 10 cents of every dollar donated to Trumpās campaign is being directed towards Save America, which in the last year has operated virtually exclusively as a legal slush fund for the former president.
This. His supporters just donāt care. Whatever it takes to beat the dems.
Such an important note. Click bait articles stating trump did something bad, the left opens it up with indignation and wonder if THIS will be the moment THEY realize trump is a horrible person.
They. Donāt. Care.
The quicker the left understands that the better equipped they can be to beat out misinformation, target dollars and organize correctly to make a movement that matters.
Iām not sure the left doesnāt already see that. Itās the media and politicians pretending that the far right is worth listening to.
