Trump’s bid for another term in office could complicate his habit of using his PAC's money to pay his lawyers.
notes Trump’s Save America PAC spent $16 total on legal payments, and that although some of that money went to lawyers representing Trump allies, the majority of it went to lawyers representing Trump himself as the former president has fought a variety of investigations. The $10 million figure represents nearly 20 percent of the PAC’s total expenditures.
It’s unclear how Trump’s 2024 presidential candidacy will impact his ability to use political donations to handle his personal legal needs. The Federal Election Commission prohibits declared candidates from using campaign funds for personal use, but Adav Noti of the Campaign Legal Center told thethat the FEC doesn’t always enforce its rules, and that there’s a “gray area” regarding what is allowed.
Trump has needed as much cash as he can get to pay lawyers representing him as he’s tried to ward off investigations into fraud within the Trump Organization , whether he meddled in Georgia’s 2020 presidential election , his handling of classified documents after leaving the White House , his potential role in overturning the 2020 election and fomenting an insurrection at the Capitol .
