YouTube Description
as posted by the channelTrump has spent huge amounts of money—in the last two years upwards of $75 million-- contributed to his Save America PAC to pay his own legal fees and those of favored underlings like Walt Nauta, whom he wants to keep in the fold. .Harry speaks with Adav Noti, the Executive Director of the Campaign, legal center and a former FEC official, about the guidelines for such payments. They turn out to be quite permissive. Although there are restrictions on individual contribution amounts, and a strong disclosure regime, money in a “leadership PAC” such as Save America can be used for a candidate’s personal expenses to a surprising degree. Noti explains exactly what the legal regime is and how it came to pass.
