"Trump's Legal Woes Drain Political Funds and Raise Questions About Donor Support"
TL;DR
New data from WinRed, the GOP donation processor used by Donald Trump and other Republican candidates, suggests that Trump's legal troubles may no longer be the fundraising boon they once were. While his first indictment in the spring resulted in a spike of nearly $4 million in donations, his second indictment in June only brought in $1.3 million. This indicates that further legal jeopardy may not have the same impact on Trump's fundraising as his committees continue to deplete their cash reserves.
