Recent FEC disclosures revealed that Donald Trump’s PACs spent over $50 million on legal expenses in 2023, with nearly 25% of the funds raised going to lawyers and law firms.

Despite the substantial spending, the effectiveness of these legal services is being called into question, especially given some high-profile losses in court.

The PACs’ ability to use campaign funds for Trump’s legal fees is also under scrutiny, with Trump justifying the expenses as related to his political candidacy or former role as president.

The source of these funds is largely from small-dollar donors, raising concerns about ongoing financial support and the future of legal representation if Trump’s financial resources diminish.
