    Well, not Trump, but his donors. His legal fees are paid through his multiple Political Action Commities.

    “Save America PAC and Make America Great Again PAC, the two political action committees that are paying for Trump’s legal defenses as he faces 91 felony counts across four cases, spent over $49.6 million of donor money on attorneys, legal consulting and investigation-related fees, according to his latest campaign finance filings. In the last six months of 2023 alone, the PACs spent over $28 million, compared to over $21.5 million spent in the first half of last year.”

      $100 million dollars less to spend on propaganda.
