Is Trump using his 2020 Re-election Committee to launder money?

[kentuck]

It would be the perfect conduit. The money is not traced and it is unaccounted for. It is easy to write a check to cover Don Jr's legal bill out of campaign finances.

They simply cannot be trusted.

(By the way, he opened up his Re-election Committee on the day he was inaugurated!)

1. He paid $50k for jr's lawyer with it

He is taking money from Eric's foundation for sick children for his clubs

He uses his foundation (other peoples money) to buy portraits of himself

Any $ within reach he believes is his.

And he owes millions to contractors for trump DC

2. I would say YES

He's a grifter, a crook and a snake oil salesman so what do you think

[kentuck]

3. Probably so...

He will do whatever he thinks he can get away with. In my opinion.

4. My opinion too

100%

5. I have kind of a stupid question.

He obviously doesn't like BEING president. What will he do with all that money if he doesn't run again? What CAN he do with it, legally?

[kentuck]

6. He'll use it like a slush fund....

as he has already demonstrated he is willing to do.

9. Is it legal for him to tap into for personal use?

11. Since when has that stopped him?

He is used to bullying his way through this irritating regulations, and ignoring them. And if he doesn't like what somebody is doing, he just fires them.

7. give it to the party, or someone who is running, i think.

not sure.

[Nay]

8. IIRC, he can keep the money. I don't even know if he has to pay taxes on it if

he uses it for himself and not on a campaign.

10. What a fucking dirtball!

He's only in this to pay off his debts, he never had any intention of carrying out his duties! Not like any of us should be surprised. Still, I am surprised that he can get away with this shit.
