Trump's Legal Expenses Soar
  • 9 months ago
Former President Donald Trump's Save America PAC has spent over $20 million on legal fees in the first six months of 2023, accounting for two-thirds of the PAC's total spending. The legal fees primarily cover Trump's and his associates' expenses related to multiple investigations, including those probing the January 6 riot and efforts to overturn the 2020 election. While Save America is distinct from the groups directly funding Trump's presidential campaign, it typically fundraises for both entities simultaneously. The PAC previously donated tens of millions to the super PAC MAGA Inc. to bolster Trump's candidacy but later reclaimed over $12 million from MAGA Inc., affecting the latter's spending capacity.
