FOUND: Trump diverts donations from rnc - What They Never Told You

Former President Donald Trump’s new fundraising agreement with the Republican National Committee diverts a portion of donations to a PAC that pays his legal bills before any money gets to the party, according to The New York Times.

The Times flagged an invitation to a major upcoming dinner for the new Trump 47 Committee asking donors to contribute up to $814,600 to attend. The invitation shows that the first $6,600 of the donation will go to Trump’s campaign, the next $5,000 would go to the Save America PAC that paid over $50 million in legal bills last year, and the next $413,000 go to the RNC, followed by dozens of state parties.
