Donald Trump’s political operation is reeling after spending around $60 million on legal fees pertaining to the four criminal indictments and various ongoing civil lawsuits against him.

Disclosures indicate that Trump’s campaign and the various political action committees supporting it blew through tens of millions of dollars in 2023, leaving him cash-strapped heading into 2024.

Save America PAC, Trump’s primary PAC heading into his likely rematch with President Joe Biden, once had over $100 million in the bank. Now, it has just a little over $5 million left after spending over $25 million on legal bills in the second half of last year alone.

    It’s $2 billion that still belongs to the Saudis. Jared is getting a management fee of probably $20 million per year. Definitely still a bribe/payment for services rendered just trying to say the amount and mechanism are not what you think.

      I’ve always understood their “investment” into a company that doesn’t actually do anything to be very similar to a “loan” given to Clarence Thomas that he never has to repay or report (because it’s just a loan y’all).
