On his way out of the Whit House, Trump has set up a new scam: the Donald J Trump Election Defense Fund.
True believers are being urged to donate to this fund, but here's the reality, hidden in the fine print:
60% of every donation goes to a PAC that Trump just set up - Save America. 40% goes to the RNC. Anything over the legal limit (about $8000) goes to an actual "defense fund" intended for legal expenses. So if you donate less than about $8000, 60% of your money is going into Trump's pocket, because the FEC doesn't regulate how these PACs spend their money. NONE of it is going to the legal costs of fighting the election results, e reason you were urged to donate. If you donated, you've been had once again by the master con artist. We keep trying to tell you, but you refuse to listen - Trump is and has always been a con man. Everything he does is about him and how he can make money. This is the last dying gasp at monetizing his presidency before we throw him out of office.
And now, cue the rationalizations of this behavior by the Trump fans here... |
