The Daily Beast reports:
Money raised by Donald Trump’s 2024 campaign is being sent right back into the former president’s pockets in various forms, according to a new report from Forbes based on Federal Election Commission records.
Trump has not donated any money personally to his 2024 presidential campaign, but he is certainly charging others for it, according to the records, which show $4.6 million worth of campaign money has been transferred to his business empire.
Much of that money, the Forbes report claims, has been sent to Trump’s aviation company, Tag Air. The Secret Service forked out $800,000 in airfare to travel with the former president.
Read the full article. The Forbes report is paywalled. Trump is also funneling campaign money into Mar-A-Lago, his other hotels, and his golf courses. Basically, it’s a rerun of what he did with federal money as president.
