With how he's been acting I think that well is drying up these days. As much Russia wants to contribute they have their war to pay for and sanctions make it more difficult (I hope), I'm sure his supporters are less able to contribute since they've given so much already, I doubt he's getting many new supporters. He'll still get more than most people can reasonably make in 20 years but it'll never be enough for Trump.
Plus I think his legal bills are catching up these days funny how a billionaire has trouble paying lawyers for even a handful of cases eh? That's like pay a few big firms type of money available, if it were there. Maybe it's just because no one will work for him but I imagine he could get a hundred decent lawyers if he paid properly.
Assuming he would pay them if he could afford to
Has he ever paid his lawyers?
I read last year that lawyers now refuse to work for him unless paid up front since he's left so many of them out to dry.
Why don’t they just sue him?
Cause he gets the next set of lawyers to stall the first set of lawyers? 🤷♂️
State RNC branches are going bankrupt, too, as people are donating money to national and Trump and not them. Also Trump had the national RNC paying his legal bills but they backed out... and Trump's PAC (which he has diverted money from to pay legal bills) asked for a $60 million refund from another group due to mounting legal bills.
