Trump stocks new PAC with tens of millions as he bids to retain control of GOP
Former President Donald Trump amassed $31.2 million in his new political operation by the end of 2020, giving him a powerful tool to keep the Republican Party in his grip as he left office.
Save America, a leadership PAC created in the aftermath of the 2020 election, is set to play a key role in Trump’s plans to keep a strong hand in party politics — both to boost loyalists and also to seek retribution against Republicans he believes have wronged him, such as the 10 House Republicans who voted to impeach Trump in mid-January. Trump cannot spend the PAC funds directly on any future campaign of his own, but he can use it to wield influence in campaigns in the midterm elections, pay his political advisers and travel the country.
“The more money [Trump] stacks up in his committee, the greater his grip will remain on many elected Republicans who will fear those resources could be turned against them,” said Rob Stutzman, a California-based Republican consultant. Stutzman said that it “should be no surprise” that Trump “has continued to fundraise well during this period.”
The money in Trump’s PAC, detailed in a new financial report filed with the Federal Election Commission on Sunday evening, was largely raised via grassroots fundraising appeals pleading for help with legal challenges aimed at the 2020 election results. But Save America spent little money at the end of last year, reporting only $218,000 in merchant fees to Republican online donation processor WinRed.

Oh please. He's going to pocket most of the money. That's what he does.

...and he’s just—to borrow a phrase—borrowing from Peter to pay Paul, or in other words grafting from duped followers to finance his futile goal of staying ahead of his crippling debts.
most of the money Trump received from his various grifts of his cult are in cash (wingnuts don't trust those banks, you know) there was some creative accounting going on. All those red state rubes, collecting soda and beer bottles along the highway, and sending the money to their cult leader for all of his "legal fights" against the socialist libtards. Salt of the earth, they are.
