Trump’s political action committee, Save America, has spent more than $40 million on legal fees since the start of 2023, a source familiar with the matter told CNN. The PAC also shelled out $16 million-plus on legal costs the previous year

As time went on, Trump began raising funds for his 2024 campaign. However, he later began diverting a larger percentage of every dollar he raised online away from his election campaign coffers and into the PAC, which is being used to pay for lawyers for him and other people, according to the Times.
As a result, former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie — who also is vying for the 2024 GOP presidential nomination — recently slammed Trump’s funneling of money that donors gave to his campaign to pay his personal legal fees as “disgraceful.”
“He’s going to middle-class men and women in this country, and they’re donating $15, $25, $50, $100 because they believe in Donald Trump and they want him to be president again,” Christie said. “They’re not giving that money so he can pay his personal legal fees.”
It's more than "disgraceful", it's CRIMINAL.
