Trump committee's spending on lawyers soars to $76 million, draining funds to fight Biden
A new campaign finance report shows the political committee covering a large portion of Donald Trump and allies' legal expenses across multiple court cases spent another $3.7 million on lawyers last month, and has now spent $76 million total on legal fees.
The presumptive Republican 2024 White House nominee is currently on criminal trial in New York City for charges stemming from alleged hush money payments to an adult film star to hide a sexual affair during his successful 2016 presidential campaign. Trump also is facing criminal charges in three other cases related to his handling of classified documents and efforts to overturn the 2020 election and has contended with multiple civil lawsuits.
Those legal cases have been incredibly costly, draining money Trump otherwise could use to challenge President Joe Biden.
Trump's leadership PAC, Save America, has handled much of the former president's legal expenses. A report that Save America filed with the Federal Election Commission this weekend shows the committee spent another $3.7 million in March on payments to more than a dozens law firms, including two firms associated with Trump’s top lawyers in the hush money case.

Sounds like his attorneys want their money up front.
