Ahh, but here's The Rub..

Somehow it's Illegal for Trump to use his own money to do what, I'm guessing, people who have used My money for... A fund exists just for the purpose of
Making embarrassing problems go away,,and we all pay for it. Sure,, it's statistically a Drop in the Bucket, considering the corruption in DC, but it's not supposed to even exist.

Agreed. Which is why I asked where else would they get that kind of money?

It would still be illegal if that fund was used in the same capacity that Trump did. If the fund falsified business records to pay out, they would be breaking the same laws.

It's like saying insider trading is somehow illegal when Rich Richman does it, but not illegal when the rest of us trade in the Stock Market.
