to a kiosk in the basement of Trump Tower that sells campaign memorabilia. It’s hard to imagine that the kiosk has been doing much business amid the coronavirus crisis, but the campaign has continued to pay its rent, $3,000 per month. Trump Restaurants LLC has gotten $117,000 since its owner became president.another $1,000 in July. The campaign has paid Trump’s hotel properties $226,000 since Inauguration Day, according to the analysis of federal filings.
The Trump Organization did not respond to a request for comment. A representative for the Trump campaign ignored a series of questions about the payments and instead issued a broad statement. “The campaign complies with all campaign finance laws and FEC regulations,” the statement said. “The campaign pays fair market value under negotiated rental agreements and other service agreements in compliance with the law.
In addition to the campaign, the Republican National Committee and the president’s joint-fundraising committees have also paid millions of dollars to Trump’s businesses. Last month,on $4.7 million of payments from those entities since Trump took office. The president’s total haul—from his campaign, party and joint fundraising committees—now stands at more than $6.9 million.

DanAlexander21 Umm, is that, legal?
DanAlexander21 Not a lie nor a secret. This IS public info. Google donations & spending by candidates including Trump. Also, Trump IS the richest president in history. Trump net worth $3.1B (2018-2019 and cumulative of inheritance, RE, companies) Everything doesn’t need to be a conspiracy.🤦🏻♀️

DanAlexander21 Campaign $$ Are NOT A Personal Piggy BanK ! Campaign cash is to be spent on the effort to win office. *Defined by the FEC. What is Trump planning to use this $2.3 million to pay? Is it going back into his own businesses again? Bank it & claim it was used to try and win?

DanAlexander21 Trump clearly is the biggest con man. Wtf people see in him? 175,000 TrumpVirus death toll and 57% republican voters say it's acceptable? What is wrong with these people? TrumpMeltdown America
DanAlexander21 Is no one worried about the morals of our country?

DanAlexander21 I voted conservative 5 decades. George Bush did not cause 9/11 or Katrina however he was Presidential in all his after actions. No blame and sympathy for victims. He took responsibility! Trump divides America with his blame game and lies. He has tainted the brand and I am done

DanAlexander21 Yawn. Tell me about how the Clintons and O'Bamas got so rich serving the public.
DanAlexander21 Ok
DanAlexander21 Trying to put away some finds b4 his vac Club Fed. We need to try & find out how much he's stealing from our treasury
DanAlexander21 All of his private businesses are removed from the government, in a trust. You should be reporting on the Obamas cuz I don’t understand how you could be campaigning at the DNC and then collecting campaign funds thru your own “nonpartisan” organization. That is VERY misleading
DanAlexander21 Lie
DanAlexander21 I think it’s the other way around. Just because a billionnaire can afford to campaign without tricking himself out to a bunch of lobbyists doesn’t mean he is using campaign money into his private business. That would be against campaign finance rules and his Presidency
DanAlexander21 Why? Just yesterday in the RNC2020 they touted as he is the richest man alive in the world.
