Trump Election Campaign raises $170 million and ways of channelling it for legal exp

President Biden’s campaign along with his party The Democratic National Committee raised $85 million compared to the Republicans who collected $141 million according to data released in May. This month saw the Biden Campaign with $212 million in hand while Trump’s Party amassed $170 million according to statisticians. 

This is only a partial count of the fundings collected by Trump’s party. In April, Trump’s campaign was a huge $100 million behind current elected president Mr Biden. But within a couple of months, the deficit has been reduced considerably. And for the frst time, the former President has more funds than the current one, $116.5 million of Trump’s electoral campaign to $91.6 million of Biden’s.

Since former president Donald Trump left the White House in 2020, Trump has taken advantage of a loophole in campaign finance law to pay his mounting legal costs, which after calculation amounts to a whooping $90,000 per day and this has  been ongoing for 3 years now. 

Campaign disclosures show that Trump has been using a number of Political Action Committees for funnelling donor’s money to a leadership PAC that he founded called Save America, that is paying his legal bills. These groups are separate from the official campaign and not subject to the same restriction by the Federal Election Commission.
