Trump can use funds he raised to "stop the steal" to enrich himself

Because FEC is so weak, money raised by a PAC can be spent through firms controlled by the PAC founders or their relatives, thus enriching the PAC insiders rather than furthering the political cause for which the donors gave. Both small and large donors n be targeted. And any politician or political operative can run this type of scam – and they do. We have pointed out “liberal” ones in the past like ‘End Citizens United.’
