Trump Diverts Inaugural Merchandise Funds to Leadership PACs, Ignoring Tradition

Credited from: FORBES

  • Donald Trump's inaugural committee merchandise may cover personal expenses, notably legal fees, as proceeds don't support the traditional inaugural nonprofit.
  • The inaugural items include 38 products sold via the WinRed platform, with proceeds going to a leadership PAC and the Republican National Committee.
  • Trump's leadership PACs, including Never Surrender, are not restricted from using funds for personal expenses, which raises legal concerns.
  • Experts state this is the first recorded instance where inaugural merchandise proceeds are diverted to a PAC, diverging from past practices where funds supported inaugural events.
  • Past misuse of inaugural funds has led to legal scrutiny against Trump, including a prior settlement related to his first inauguration.
