In the month of February,Ā Donald Trump finally neared the start of hisĀ general election campaignĀ againstĀ Joe Bidenāwhile burning through his political operationās coffers for even more cash to support his legal defenses.
On Wednesday night, Trumpās āSave Americaā leadership PACāthe political committee thatĀ now functions primarily as his legal slush fundāreported paying lawyers $5.6 million last month, according to Federal Election Commission filings. Thatās well above the $5 million total the PAC raised in the same period.
The PAC alsoĀ deferred paymentĀ on more than half a million dollars in additional fees toĀ Alina Habba, who represented Trump in both of his milestone court losses in New York this year, while racking up a $645,000 bill to a company tasked with managing legal records in his business fraud case.
Someone explain one thing to me - how could paying these bills not be considered coordination with the candidate?
My guess it is, but it is āgood for everyoneā, since they can campaign less, hence the more money goes to Trump, the more seats Dems get.
