Trump’s groups brought in more than $80 million during the first half of 2021, a large chunk of which was transferred in from Trump-affiliated accounts. He used some of his funds on things like salaries for aides and political advisers, as well as events, travel expenses and fundraising outreach to supporters.

A Trump spokesperson confirmed that no funds from any of Trump’s political committees have been spent in Arizona or other efforts, like the lawsuit calling for an audit in Fulton County, Georgia. Thewas first to report lack of funding for the Arizona audit before FEC filings were made public. Trump’s Make America Great Again PAC also footed the bill for legal consulting fees during Trump’s second impeachment trial. The law firms of Trump’s three impeachment attorneys, Bruce Castor, Michael van der Veen, and David Schoen, were collectively paid more than $600,000.

CarrieHebert It's not as easy to launder Russian mob money when you are in the hot seat

CarrieHebert Grifter in Chief

These jacksses at Yahoo actually had a story about a $5000 Whiskey Pompeo received yet Dems like Maxine Waters have made their family members MILLIONAIRES for licking envelopes. Blows my mind that u NEVER see a negative story about a Democrat from this so called “news” outlet

Uh, it’s NOT EVEN CAMPAIGN SEASON YET! What about Democrats who haven’t spent money on candidates yet? Are they doing something illegal and sinister? Yahoo News is a f*cking joke.

He's saving up for 2024.

People seem to have forgotten about all the liens that are coming due soon! 🤔 Why has that story gone dark? 🤔 Trump is in huge debt to a host of creditors for Trump properties!

He owes more than that! He’s so in debt to Russia! 😏It will take a lot more to pay back his creditors are due to come calling soon! Tick tock!

He never planned on using 'war chest' for campaign. Have you learned nothing about this opportunist?

DAMFs

Grifting 24/7.

It's not a war chest it's a Personal fund chest.

Grifters gonna grift.

The dude is about self-interested. At some point the GOP will feature this out.

Is he? Or is he spending it on himself and his family?

Twitter accounts come and go. Please consider following this NEW account. If American democracy is to survive beyond 2024, it is crucial that Democrats maintain control of the House and Senate in the 2022 midterms. It doesn't take a rocket scientist.

He needs it for legal bills.

Trump 2024 Baby

Everything with trump is a grift.

That he grifted for himself

A grifter until the end....

Commander in chief grifter

They should indict him and make him turn all that money over to the DOJ for purchase of new election equipment for Az.

Stupid people sending money to a loser. It’s ok he will take it.

Apparently people never get tired of paying the bills for an alleged billionaire.

Which he won’t willingly spend a nickel of. That’s his griftin’ money!

CON MAN GRIFTER!

Nobody with any sense or love of democracy would vote for him.

Help to protect nature and people, please! More info in comments on how to:

With this amount of money how many cartons of cigarettes can he buy in prison!!!

All $100 million gained under false pretenses, destined to be used for purposes not intended by those who donated. The Great Grifter is a shining example of belief and faith triumphing over fact and reason.

Entirely financed by...not him.

GODS DO GOD THINGS

He's keeping it for himself as his company isn't making any money. Grifter

Grifters gotta grift

That pic. Has anyone seen individ 1 and regis philbin in the same room at the same time?

Maybe Dominion can include it in it's law suit. It's about 4% of the claimed damages.

Mmm... publish your sources, if you don't mind.

Simple. We boycott him and his associates, broke. Do your research.

Con man's gotta con until either he dies or the music stops.

The Evil Greed of Donald J Trump 21st Century Antichrist. If he doesn't go to jail before 2024 prepare for Civil War 😱

Grifting from numpties.

Trump still gets a lot more press than Biden. I am amused.

Money to spread more lies.

So that's why his ass looks so big.

My bet is that he keeps most of it for himself.

And it's all from those gullible persons who think he's their messiah that would change their world to their own liking. Newsflash, he CAN'T!

Leave him alone. I know Dems media has not said a single good word about trump yet. And this is also not true either. If you find a single good news about trump by Dems based media, I would reward you $100,000 coz there is none. FOLLOW ME if you are a fighter against fake media.

And, he has no one left to bribe. Sad.

And how did he get on lies

This man has the BALLS.

I’m sure he’ll use it wisely based on his financial history.

Trump raises big money in early 2021, but doesn't spend muchTrump, a Republican, established the Save America committee in November shortly after losing the presidential election to Democrat Joe Biden. Under Federal Election Commission (FEC) rules, the committee has broad leeway in how it can use its money. A filing with the FEC showed Save America made a $1 million contribution in June to the America First Policy Institute, a nonprofit run by veterans of his administration. Poor and middle class people donating directly into the pockets of a millionaire. Priceless… It’s being saved for his legal defense fund and his bank loans. Those little $10 & $25 contributions are being scammed from the loser supporters.

Will Trump be spoiler as California GOP seeks Newsom recall?California could witness a stunning turnabout in a nation of deeply polarized politics if the liberal state dumps Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom and elects a Republican to fill his job in a September recall election. Republicans haven’t won a statewide race in California since 2006. Which Republican celebrity actor would be the best candidate for the office. Lol, it’s not going to happen. If recalled, he can then support the illegals out of his own pocket and not the taxpayers 👍
