To be fair, some of the money is also going to maintain the work on Lara Trump's unrecognizable face.

[pleco]

Losers donations paying lawyer bills.
Absolutely hilarious.

[johngreene]

But mail in voting is wrong according to Trump.

[johngreene]

100 million so far of GOP donations to pay billionaire bills.

[igorschmidlapp]

I'M RICH! But pay my legal bills, OK? :-P

[rob]

The fact that Lara took on the job thinking she could channel all the funds into Dumpty Dons account, should tell you what she will continue to do anyway she can, regardless of the spin she is putting on it now.

[Grandizer]

Thoughts and prayers to anyone who has to look at Lara Trump without makeup. Except you, Eric. You deserve it

[BP-]

For someone who is supposed to be so rich why does he constantly bombard his supports for small dollar donations?

[lorihamner]

Small amount of money 100 million spent on legal bills so far really so this billionaire can play golf instead of campaigning. When are people going to wake up.

[wattetiparoch]

Ohhh Lara T, for the luvah. . . Stop usuing Botox. Enough allready

[jessieball]

Trump (so far) has never said that the abortion issue should be left up to the states. He said that he is for a 16-week ban.

[steveg]

It looks like she had too much plastic surgery…

[saundrahuff]

Oh yeah, you can tell she’s sooo honest. Not like she already claimed everything was going to pay his bills.

[Royale_with_Cheeze]

Putting all the RNC funds behind the candidate who lost *BIGLY* in 2020 while leaving local Republican candidates to run their campaigns without funding that is supposed to go to them as well is great for the Democrats.
Put all your eggs in one basket.

[macrichardson]

So for all of you who could not stomach watching her interview. She said that "doners" can check a box to opt out from their donation going to his legal In pure Trump fashion, i bet the print is tiny and you have to go to page 42 to even find im sure it is very intentionally difficult to find that check box.

[wfvqrvta]

take this thing and her father n law to prison

[larryhuston]

Maybe Lara can get a refund on that cut-rate plastic surgery she got.

[matclairoux]

''is able to up out.'' Is there a box you can check: NO, i don't want to send money for legal expanses. This is soooo wrong.

[Eros]

She said donors have the option to donate a small amount of money to his legal fees, if it's a small amount of money... then why doesn't trump who's says he's very rich just pay for it?

[baronghede]

These people are just plain embarrassing, Blessed Be.
