Is Donald Trump making money off his presidential bid?
In the month of May, Trump spent more than $1 million in campaign cash on his own businesses. Put another way, nearly 20 percent of Trump’s campaign spending last month went to benefit Trump-owned companies.
He also spent more than $423,000 to rent out his private Mar-a-Lago club. And in July, Trump’s campaign paid $48,239 to rent the Trump National Golf Club in Westchester County. By comparison, holding an event for thousands of people at the nearby Westchester County Center costs about $10,000.
On rent, the campaign has spent over $830,000 for office space at Trump Tower. In July, it paid over $169,000, up 133 percent from May. Trump officials reportedly said they expanded into more office space in anticipation of additional staff.
Trump Got $1.6M From Secret Service
U.S. Secret Service has paid Donald Trump's campaign a total of about $1.6 million to have their agents fly on a plane owned by Trump.
--------------------------
Normally, the campaign rents the plane. But they don't rent the plane as a body, but rent the seats. For instance, the press corp usually pays for it's own seats and the Secret Service pays the airline for their seats. Only this time, Trump owns the plane.
Wowie Kazowie!
Trump's donors are making him more and more rich.
Remember, we said Trump will scam his minions. And there he is, scamming his minions.
Is it hard to sit down yet?
Go ahead, send him some more money. He has loans to pay off to China, India, Russia and Wall Street. He needs about a billion more.
