Donald Trump stands during the ProAm competition at Trump National Doral Golf Club, Thursday, Oct. 27, 2022, in Doral, Fla. From the day Trump left office through the end of last year, the former president's various political committees spent $905,570 at his multiple properties, according to a HuffPost analysis of new Federal Election Commission filings.
WASHINGTON — Donald Trump failed to spend much of the money he raised over the past two years fighting his 2020 election loss or helping Republicans win two Georgia Senate seats or funding a “red wave” in 2022, but he did manage to put nearly $1 million of his donors’ contributions right back into his own cash registers.
From the day he left office through the end of last year, the coup-attempting former president’s various political committees spent $905,570 at his properties, according to a HuffPost analysis of new Federal Election Commission filings.
From $94,462 that Trump’s Save America “leadership PAC” dropped at Trump’s hotel on Central Park West in Manhattan on Dec. 10, 2021, to $1,122 his newly reformed presidential campaign spent at his West Palm Beach golf course on Dec. 12, 2022, to twin $48 tabs the campaign spent at his Mar-a-Lago social club on Nov. 18, 2022, it all represents a conversion of donor money into revenues at Trump businesses, with the profits flowing directly to him personally.
Trump’s campaign did not respond to a HuffPost query on this matter.
However, his pattern of spending large amounts from committees he controls to benefit himself is not new.
