Morphine Prince 109,655 Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 Donald Trump paid nearly $12.5 million to his own businesses and family members during his 18-month campaign for president, a CNN review of federal reports shows. The biggest beneficiary was Tag Air Inc., a Trump-owned company that operates his airplanes and was paid $8.7 million. The next biggest payment -- $2.2 million -- went to Trump Payroll Corp. and Trump Tower Commercial LLC. One campaign finance watchdog said no candidate had ever run so much of a campaign's spending through his own businesses. "I don't think we've ever seen one like this," said Larry Noble, general counsel of the Campaign Legal Center. The list of Trump businesses that were paid by the campaign is long. Trump's hotels and golf clubs received $1.4 million. Some $238,000 went to Trump restaurants and food services. His son's company, Eric Trump Wine Manufacturing, got $32,196. All of the money came directly from Trump's own campaign. And it's all legal. The campaign did not respond to CNN's request for comment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
