Trump’s Reelection Campaign Pouring Money Into Trump Businesses
Daily Caller ^ | 7/16/17 | Kevin Daily

Posted on 07/16/2017 4:08:50 PM PDT by Maceman

President Donald Trump’s re-election campaign has poured hundreds of thousands of dollars into various Trump-owned properties since the beginning of 2017, according to the organization’s latest filings with the Federal Election Commission.

The filings show the organization, Donald J. Trump for President, Inc., has spent over $100,000 on various products and services in Trump family properties in Washington, D.C., New York, and Las Vegas.

The largest expenditures are for commercial space in Trump Tower on Fifth Ave. in Manhattan, the flagship of the Trump family’s sprawling business empire. The campaign leases offices for approximately $40,000 per month, totaling just over $120,000 during this reporting period. It also paid $2,000 to Trump-owned restaurants inside the building.

The Secret Service and the Department of Defense also rent space at Trump Tower.

This is from the Daily Caller.

I guess this is the next bog Trump scandal that will take up 93% of the MSM's "news" coverage.

I don’t care. As long as they are open and honest about what they are spending, he has every right to hire his own businesses.

He’s going to pay vendors anyway.

Also - has ANY, ‘journalist’ thought to follow ANY, ‘Clinton Cash/Blood Money/American Secrets For Sale’ from start to finish?

When Joe Biden starts donating the rent he charges for the SS for his guest house, I’d get worked up over this...

Unintentionally humourous.

Pouring money? A hundred thousand? That’s chicken feed. Hillary steals that much every five minutes.

And if any money went into Trump Tower, it was presumably to protect the President’s friends and family.

The Clinton's rent out the tiny guest house of their Chappaqua NY mansion to the secret service as a command center for their security detail for monthly rent that fully covers the the loan payment for the entire Chappaqua property.

So the government pays the Clinton's mortgage for the privilege of acting as body guards to the Clinton's

They are renting space. Big deal. This is as controversial as the reporting a few weeks ago that Trump receives money from foreigners... because they pay for stays at his hotels.

Daily Caller, a Tucker Carlson operation, is supposed to be pro-Trump.

Why would they publish this damaging info?

This is supposed to get us exorcize do? A puny $100K is nothing compared to the hundreds of millions poured into the Clinton Foundation & Message Parlor by our enemies around the world.

Trump runs legitimate businesses and hotels.

If he needs Hotel rooms or meeting rooms, of course he is going
to send that business to his families hotels.

He would be an idiot otherwise.
