https://www.npr.org/2020/09/08/910725504/whatever-it-takes-president-trump-says-he-may-spend-his-own-money-for-re-electioNearly a week after Joe Biden's campaign and the Democratic Party announced they had raised a blockbuster $364 million in August, the Trump campaign and Republican Party still haven't released their numbers, and President Trump is talking about putting in his own money.
"If I have to, I would," Trump responded to a reporter's question Tuesday before departing for Florida. "If we needed any more, I'd put it up personally, like I did in the primaries last time." He added that he would spend "whatever it takes. We have to win."
Funny, given that Trump has clearly been siphoning campaign money into his own pocket. How does that work, Donny?

Just like he did four years ago.
Wouldn't it be absolutely rich and all too satisfying if the campaign couldn't afford any TV/media ads the last few weeks of October.

The quintessential cheap fuck. Thatll be the day when he spends any of his money. As we know he spends all his spare time trying to scam people out of their money.
