"SELF-FUNDING TRUMP"...$36.7 million in July. $2 million from Trump. The rest? "OTHER DONORS."

[Miles Archer]

WASHINGTON ― In almost every possible way, Hillary Clinton and her allies entered the general election push against Donald Trump with massive campaign advantages. At the beginning of August, after both party conventions, the Clinton team held a massive cash advantage while simultaneously outspending Trump on building a traditional presidential campaign.

The Clinton campaign received $52.3 million in July compared with $36.7 million for Trump. The Republican nominee contributed $2 million of his own money to the campaign, with the rest of his funds coming from other donors. The Democratic National Committee raised $32.4 million next to $27.2 million for the Republican National Committee. The pro-Clinton super PAC Priorities USA Action raised $9.9 million while two of the three main pro-Trump super PACs ― Great America PAC and Make America Number 1 ― raised a combined $4.4 million. The third won’t report its numbers again until October.

1. He is getting his 2MM back by expensing to Trump businesses.

He is making money on his campaign. Rubes will be skinned, like always.
