Former President Donald J. Trumps new shared fund-raising agreement with the Republican National Committee directs a portion of donations to the political account he has used to pay his legal bills before any money goes to the party itself. Do not forget that Lara Trump stated that every dollar the RNC has will go to Trump. --- "Freedom was meaningless without ownership and control over one's own body" -Tera Hunter 'Joy My Freedom' [Evil Republican] 3DS FC: 5429-7297-4842 ...

Wait, so trump gets the first 11k of all donations? Or just for that fundraiser. It's any fundraising thing they do, for example: The nature of such a dinner for megadonors is that most funds will still go to the party. But for a smaller event with, for instance, a $25,000 price to attend, a far larger share under the agreement would go to Mr. Trumps PAC. --- "Freedom was meaningless without ownership and control over one's own body" -Tera Hunter 'Joy My Freedom' [Evil Republican] 3DS FC: 5429-7297-4842 ...

The order in which entities will receive funds from big donors through what is known as the Trump 47 Committee was disclosed in the fine print of an invitation to a big dinner next month in Palm Beach, Fla., where top donors are asked to contribute up to $814,600 per person to attend.

His DiL openly admitted that they were going to use siphon money from the party to Trump. She said, "every single penny will go to the No. 1 and the only job of the RNC that is elected Donald J. Trump as president of the United States and saving this country."

So the more people sue Trump, the less money the RNC gets? Sounds good to me! Also can't believe it's legal to use campaign finances to pay for lawyers for whatever random business dealings and sexual assault cases, etc... But we basically have no campaign finance laws, so I guess I shouldn't be surprised. And it's funny that it's a minimum amount to get any money to the RNC, not like... "any money above X goes to Trump". Small donors have literally no reason to donate now, it's just going to pay Trump's lawyers or go to payouts to those suing him (ie, "the people we hate"). ...

Good. This hurts every other Republican candidate and that's only a good thing for the nation.
As much as I hate Trump and his blatant grifter/criminal activity, I can't deny my stance is softened when it directly hurts Republicans and their voters. Like, yes, siphon all of your money to that "billionaire" and his legal fees. thronedfire2 posted... Well, hes going to run out of possible lawyers if he doesnt start paying them soon. They have been getting paid. The money he's already been taking from the RNC (the reason they had only 8m on hand when Rona McDaniel left) and PACs has already been going to his legal fees. He has no problem paying bills when it's other people paying them. Rudy, for example, was getting "paid" from Trump directly, which is why he was never paid. --- My metal band, Ivory King, has 2 songs out now - allmylinks.com/ivorykingtx (all of our links there so you can choose which one you'd prefer to use) ...

All the sweeter knowing the money he's stealing from them is going to wind up in bank accounts belonging to Carroll and the state of New York. Actually I'm not sure he can use that money for judgments, which is why he had to get a bond for the 91m he owed Carroll and people have been wondering if he'll get another bond from Russian oligarchs to cover the current obligation that has the state poised on seizing his assets. I guess it could also be the coffers are already drained, however I think judgments aren't applicable the same way lawyer and court fees are. It's acceptable for legal defenses per campaign finance law, which is why he's been taking advantage of that. Trump pretty much had to run for POTUS in order to meander his way through his current court cases. --- My metal band, Ivory King, has 2 songs out now - allmylinks.com/ivorykingtx (all of our links there so you can choose which one you'd prefer to use) ...

It is a guarantee that if he does pay it, there will be intense scrutiny as to where he got it. And if they trace back that he took money from a foreign power that is under sanctions, then the fines will be the least of his legal problems. --- If you're not smart enough to survive, you are basically just food for something smarter. ...
