Hmmmm, so Mother Jones is suggesting Trump can use campaign cash to pay for someone else's legal defense?
"Having raised more money than anyone else in the Republican Party so far this year, new filings show Donald Trump is flush with cash. Absolutely swimming in it. But even as the money flows in, the former president is reportedly stiffing one of his fiercest allies and loyal political surrogates, Rudy Giuliani, as the former New York mayor becomes increasingly ensnared in a federal investigation that’s reportedly costing him millions in legal fees."
I dont know if he could have paid Rudy's legal bills, but I seem to remember some reports that Trump did not pay Rudy's bill for "legal" work on behalf of the campaign.
Just pointing out that the reporting is shoddy and basically it's the same tweet that's driving the stories. Some "friends" said he's almost broke. I remember Hillary claiming that when she and Bill left the WH they were almost broke.
Just saying, Trump doesn't have to pay Rudy's legal defense bills, but he could pay the bill he owes Rudy with some of that campaign cash.
Rudy is an interesting study. Had a lot of goodwill after 9/11 and squandered it over two decades. I dont know why he thought getting in bed with Trump was a good idea, but now he's in the process of losing his license and he's just another contractor Trump decided he didn't want to pay.
