He loans his campaign money, which he can use individuals' contributions to pay off, and then proceeds to spend most of that money on his own companies.

It's ****ing brilliant, really. He gets free media attention which gets his supporters to send him money, which he then uses to repay the costs of the business he was giving himself by holding rallies at his own properties. Crassus would be proud.

1. You don't think he would hold those events

It's totally unethical, but it's to be expected at this point.

2. Even better, the law *requires* him to charge "fair market value" for using the facilities

I mean, like I said, to some extent I just kind of have to step back and admire this con. Too bad the Republic is at stake here...
