President Donald Trump has a grand total of $129 million in his coffers for his reelection effort, a record-setting amount for a sitting President at this stage in the election cycle, according to a Thursday Washington Post report.
According to FEC data, Trump has been continually inundated with small donor contributions in amounts less than $200.
Trump has also been able to build up his reserves as his legals fees have dropped off.
Use it for his wall. It’ll be wasted trying to get Dotard reelected from prison.
This is the wild card in the “Trump is so odious, stupid and deluded there’s no way he gets reelected” paradigm Dems are counting on. One wherein he just buys the Presidency.
At some point the ability to control the media and messaging, wrestling control of both through sheer force of dollars, has to be viewed as a path to a second term.
In money laundering law enforcement they call it structuring.
I know this is irrational, but there’s a part of me that thinks Trump has some vague and stupid plan to not run for reelection (because he’s fixed the country) and somehow keep that money for himself.
So how much is $129 million in rubles? Donnie needs a dacha.
