The Republican frontrunner still has wealthy friends, but legal costs are taking a large chunk out of his campaign funds.
The former president's personal campaign committee has received $32 million since the start of 2023, while his joint fundraising vehicle drew over $53 million in contributions.
However, FEC disclosures also show that Donald Trump for President 2024 Inc., his official campaign fund, also made a series of regular payments to Nauta of $3,541.67 from the end of April to the end of June—six payments totaling $21,250. At the same time, Make America Great Again Inc. Super PAC—not to be confused with the PAC of the same name—gave $12.25 million to the Save America PAC in four transfers between May and June.
According to The Associated Press, at least $42.8 million was spent by the presidential candidate's joint fundraising committee, with around $25 million of it used to cover the cost of fighting legal battles.
