Of the $1.1 million his hotels and country clubs have collected from Republican candidates and committees this year, 80% is from entities Trump controls.

Even as he leverages his presidency to make himself millions, perhaps even billions of dollars, Donald Trump is also funneling Republican donor money into his own cash registers through the political committees he controls.

In the 10 months since he retook office, the Republican National Committee has spent at least $796,513 at Trump’s hotels and country clubs, while MAGA Inc., Trump’s super PAC, has spent $60,733, according to a HuffPost analysis of Federal Election Commission data.

The figures are based on filings to date, with some committees providing updates only twice a year. The total number for 2025 will not be disclosed until the end of January 2026.

    Sounding the alarm over 1.1 million dollars after the Treasury has seen more backdoors than the anal section on porn hub. Accepted hundreds of millions in foreign gifts from people with ties to terrorism or even a few journalist murdering terrorists themselves. Denied billions in congressionally approved funds over the course of multiple presidencies. Actively trafficking US citizens to random countries while actively ignoring any constitutional guarantees.

    And 1.1 million dollars is enough for a trash article from a trash paper owned by a billionaire. Great job America.
