Trump Sends Another $4.3 Million Of Donors' Money To His Lawyers

WASHINGTON – Self-described billionaire Donald Trump sent another $4.3 million collected from his donors to his lawyers in the weeks surrounding the Nov. 5 election. That raises the total his “Save America” committee ― ostensibly created to help like-minded Republicans win elections ― spent on the attorneys handling Trump’s various criminal and civil cases to $90.8 million, according to a HuffPost analysis of Federal Election Commission records.
A post-election filing by Save America this week showed that the firms of John Lauro, Alina Habba and Chris Kise were among the recipients. The $2,403,043 to Lauro on Nov. 25 accounted for more than half of the total. Trump still had $780,000 in outstanding legal bills, according to that document.
Other filings show that Trump’s “Never Surrender” committee he created in the days after the election — which, like Save America is a “leadership” PAC, essentially allowing Trump to spend the money however he wants — was actually a renaming and restructuring of his 2024 presidential campaign account.
Solicitations to Trump donors, meanwhile, show that Never Surrender will now get only 20 cents of each dollar raised, with 80 cents going to the Republican National Committee. That split was the reverse in the initial days after the election, with 80 cents of each dollar going to Trump’s committee, which he can use to continue paying his legal bills.

I read that Elon spent over $150 million on Chump's campaign ... and I'd be suspicious if Chump put ANY of his own money into the campaign this time.
