Former President Donald Trump's joint fundraising committee brought in more than $53 million during the first six months of the year, but the committees associated with his 2024 White House bid have spent even more.
His joint fundraising committee brought in more than $53 million during the first six months of the year, but the committees associated with his 2024 White House bid have spent even more. The high rate of spending is apparent in Trump’s leadership PAC, where more than 70% – or some $21 million – of its total disbursements during the first six months of the year went to pay the growing legal bills for Trump and his associates, a report filed Monday with federal regulators shows.
Top donors to the super PAC during this period included Florida entrepreneur Patricia Duggan, who gave $5 million; longtime Trump friend and casino owner Phil Ruffin, who contributed $2 million; and Charles Kushner, the father of Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner. The elder Kushner, who received a pardon from Trump in 2020, donated $1 million. Meanwhile, Bernie Moreno, who’s seeking the Republican nomination for a US Senate seat in Ohio next year, donated $100,000.
