Trump’s huge legal expenses are 'tying up millions of dollars' that could be used for his campaign: report
In addition to facing four criminal indictments, former President Donald Trump is battling a variety of civil lawsuits — all of this while being the clear frontrunner in the 2024 GOP presidential primary.
Reuters, in an article published on September 29, stresses that Trump's "political operation" is helping him deal with a mountain of legal bills. Those expenses, according to Reuters, are "tying up millions of dollars that otherwise could be used for his 2024 White House bid."
Reuters reports that it has "identified 13 potential witnesses or co-defendants who were represented by law firms that received payments from a political group run by Trump, based on interviews and a review of court records and campaign finance disclosures."

"The payments were disclosed in campaign finance reports as general payments to law firms rather than specific payments to individuals," according to Reuters.
The law firms in question, Reuters reports, "received more than $2.1 million in the first six months of this year from Save America, a Trump group that is separate from his campaign but played a major role raising money to support him as the frontrunner for the 2024 Republican nomination."
