A super PAC supporting the former president has spent more than $20 million in legal fees in cases relating to Trump so far this year.
Former President Donald Trump has been advised to sell Trump Tower in order to cover his legal bills as cases against him continue to mount in several states.
The suggestion was made on Twitter on Monday by former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie, who is challenging Trump for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination.
However, filings with the Federal Election Commission (FEC) made public on Monday show that the Save America PAC spent more than $21 million on legal fees so far this year. That figure is in addition to $16 million the Save America PAC spent on legal fees over the previous two years.
FEC filings showed that the Save America PAC had clawed back $12 million of that money.
«If Trump is a billionaire, why is he tricking middle class donors into paying his legal bills?» Christie tweeted. «Over $56 million.»
«Answer: Donald Trump loves using other people’s money,» Christie said.
