Trump Isn’t Sharing His War Chest with Republicans

April 7, 2022 · 10:02 am ET · Leave a Comment

“Former President Donald Trump is sitting on more than $110 million in campaign cash at a time when his party is trying to win control of Congress — and it’s starting to irk some in the GOP,” NBC News reports.

“They are watching him rake in money from persistent email solicitations to the party’s small-donor base and at VIP receptions connected to a full schedule of campaign-style rallies. And they see a man stockpiling a war chest for another presidential run instead of using his prowess to boost the party.”

“Through his ‘Save America’ super PAC in support of Republicans, Trump doled out just $205,000 to 41 federal candidates through Feb. 28, the last date covered by his most recent campaign finance disclosure. The vast majority of that money has gone to Republicans running in safe seats, or against incumbents he detests, rather than competitive races likely to help determine which party wins the House and Senate in November’s midterms.”
