Trump Gave Millions of Campaign Dollars to his own Businesses

He bragged during the entire election year that he was the only candidate to ever make a profit. Trump does everything he can to make a buck, and it's usually unethical and dishonest. But his followers will continue to call him a genius because Kool Aid.

One thing i noticed that was very very weird was the money paid to that web design account. In eyeballing (quickly) other months' expenses, I see figures that are consistent with web design work and even web hosting.

...and then there's suddenly a bill for 28 *million* dollars. That the Republicans paid. To a tiny web design company that nobody's ever heard of.

Why?

It's like the $35,000 payment to that "ad agency" (Sterling-Draper) with a business address that's a home residence (which is apparently unoccupied) (source)

Drain the swamp indeed. This is unprecedented according to the article. Trump spend millions of campaign dollars on his own businesses. Yes he's smart at business- smart at enriching himself. How anyone can believe he wants to help regular people is beyond me.

Yes, he also took out loans from himself, to fund his campaign, and will pay himself back with handsome interest, when funds become available.

Anyone who doesn't think Trump is in this for the business, just doesn't understand Trump.

All he knows is business.

He's no politician.

Every decision, must have a profit and loss accounting report, to justify the action.

Every time he, or any of his family, takes actions, a little bit of more "coin" must flow into the family pockets.

Otherwise, those actions are not worth taking.

The rich have the same 24 hrs 7 days in a week the rest of us do.

The only difference between the rich and the poor, is how they spend their time.

To be really rich, you can't afford to waste any precious fleeting seconds of time in any activity that has no opportunity to produce a return on investment in time and effort.
