Trump Campaign Rebukes ‘Dishonest Fundraising’

May 7, 2019 · 5:09 pm ET · Leave a Comment

“President Trump’s campaign has issued a stinging rebuke of a group run by a former top campaign aide that has been accused of misleading donors about how it is using their money,” the Washington Post reports.

“The statement issued by Trump’s campaign Tuesday makes no mention of the president’s former deputy campaign manager, David Bossie. But people close to Trump told The Washington Post that it is specifically aimed at Bossie and the organization he founded in 2005, Presidential Coalition.”

According to CNN, Trump was “livid” when he found out Bossie was soliciting funds from Trump supporters and only spending a fraction on direct political activities.
