It would, of course, be best if the defrauded dupes would wake up and realize how badly they had been used and abused.

Did Kimbie Gillfoil declare the $60, 000 in her 2020/21
Income Taxes ???

Imagine donating money to a billionaire in the first place! Ha, could never be me! This grift was so obvious, you would have to be blind to call for it!

[UnwindingHub]

Defrauded his adoring supporters and put the money towards his business

[lauriehaynes]

My father who is a 90 year old democrat received at least 20-25 phone calls a day with a recording of Trump claiming voter fraud and asking for donations. The calls became so numerous and obnoxious that he no longer uses his land line. I feel sorry for all those that were duped and sent money!!! Especially those who made a donation and forgot to check the box to make it a one time donation and unknowingly ended up owing thousands!! I think trump needs to turn all the money he raised to the justice department to reimburse aggrieved individuals who lost large sums of money and who no longer believe the election was stolen.

What is really disconcerting is the total dedication and allegiance by a large swath of the populace to a cause that has been overwhelmingly and unequivocally demonstrated to be misleading and perilous.

[Bobbied]

Donors: call your Consumer protection agency! You were defrauded.

[Michaelkaydee]

"He didn't think there was anything to spend it on" THAT... That right there...

[raymondsutton]

It would be nice if everyone was held to the same standards. Instead we have criminals getting off and inocent people are being portrayed as the criminals that walk around committing the crimes

[randomboris]

A newer version of TRUMP UNIVERSITY; THE ELECTION DEFENSE FUND. The grift never ends!

[gregolonious]

I find this new evidence very enlightening because new doors of potential crime opens. And lining their pockets is a solid case

[dannmarceau]

Still can't believe that they fell for it.

[TheMonroemomma]

Ooooo, I LOVE this panel!! All of my favorite, most trusted anchors all together. More, please!

[s.h]

How can you convict someone showing only YOUR side of the story????

[RadagastBrown]

I am sick of the gaslighting by Claire McCaskill types. WE HAVE HEARD THE TAPES OF TRUMP COMMITTING FELONIES.

[jeffreyliddicoat]

The ONLY question you need to ask Trump Family members or Republicans is ... just yes or no ... did you recieve a presidential pardon after Jan 6 2021? ...

[davidmadrid]

THANK YOU ( ALL PANEL) INTELLIGENT ( CITIZENS) SPEAKING TRUTH.

[cherylleclerc]

Are the funds taxable or is this a totally free money for trump? He is an expert at avoiding paying wether it’s taxes or debts to contractors, rally suppliers the list is long .

[simonemartin]

Why is it always complicated he broke the law always a but

[mebeingU]

Trump’s campaign motto, “A fool and his money are soon parted…How much did we get?!”
