Donations Under $8K To Trump's ‘election Defense’ Go Back To The President by Obrigardo: 5:41pm On Nov 12, 2020 |
@Reuters finds small donations from Trump’s grassroots donors won’t be going to legal expenses at all. Unlike campaign funds, which have tight controls on how they can be spent, leadership PACs such as Save America carry few restrictions. As President Donald Trump seeks to discredit #Election2020 with baseless claims of voter fraud, his team has bombarded his supporters with requests for money to help pay for legal challenges to the results. But any small-dollar donations from Trump’s grassroots donors won’t be going to legal expenses at all, according to @Reuters review of the legal language in the solicitations. The emailed solicitations send supporters to an 'Official Election Defense Fund' website that asks them to sign up for recurring donations to 'protect the results and keep fighting'. The fine print makes clear most of the money will go to other priorities A large portion of the money goes to 'Save America,' a Trump leadership PAC set up on Monday, and the Republican National Committee. Under Federal Election Commission rules, both groups have broad leeway in how they can use the funds. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-election-trump-fundraising-insigh/donations-under-8k-to-trump-election-defense-instead-go-to-president-rnc-idUSKBN27R309 |
