Former President Donald Trump will likely run out of legal defense funds this summer, Bloomberg reported.

In 2023, Trump spent $51.2 million on legal costs and has a further $23.5 million available for lawyers' fees — but that source of money will likely dry up around July, the report said.

The ex-president may now be forced to turn to a few undesirable options to cover his costs.

Oh I hope he does. They'll let him drain it dry, that'll be excellent.

To imagine that the republican party would defund itself to save this criminal.

Why do you think state GOP chapters are filing for bankruptcy?

[-] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago

That would be so wonderfully deliciously fantastic. Please let it be reality!
