The Way Trump Called for Donations Raised Eyebrows
That's because on Sunday he encouraged loyalists to give directly to him

-------

In his first speech since leaving office, the former president encouraged loyalists to give directly to him, saying, "There's only one way to contribute to our efforts to elect 'America First' Republican conservatives and, in turn, to make America great again. And that's through Save America PAC and donaldjtrump.com."


Interpretation: The comment, made Sunday at the annual CPAC in Orlando, Fla., was particularly notable because Trump is generally loath to ask for money in person. It amounts to the latest salvo in the battle to shape the future of the GOP, with Trump making clear that he holds no allegiance to the party's traditional fundraising operation.

1. Into his pocket it goes for legal defense bills for previous crimes.

Why do the writers even take his political shit seriously

[lagomorph777]

2. Also to buy more hookers.

4. Maybe more household staff as well..

Or in his mind, "servants". I imagine his lazy, cheap ass got used to the luxury of having people to immediately satisfy his every whim, no matter how he treated them. There's no way he would pay for that himself but I bet he really misses being treated like a King.

As opposed to the Obamas, who respected and valued the household staff, tried to be considerate of them, formed familial relationships with them, and never forgot where they came from themselves.

7. Why should he try to raise funds for the Republican Party?

He's never done it before, why do it now?
It's all about him, just as it always was.
