A Look At The Sheer Financial Genius Of How Donald Trump Is Financing His Run For President
“It’s kind of a nice deal for Donald Trump,” another experienced campaign finance attorney said. “It’s very common for candidates to loan money to their campaign. It’s even not unusual for a candidate to have the campaign purchase goods or services, usually rent, from an entity that’s owned by the campaign. But the scale here is completely different.”
Donald Trump Is Paying Himself to Run for President – Genius!
EDITOR’S NOTE: This article was originally posted on the liberal news site thedailybeast.com, and written by people certainly not friendly to the Trump campaign. But even liberals are forced to give grudging admiration for the incredible, smart and unprecedented way that Donald Trump is self-funding his own campaign. He is not only funding it himself, he is also smart enough to make a profit while he does it! Can you imagine, just for a moment, if America were run by these same financial principles that Trump is running his campaign with? It’s time to be a creditor nation once again.
“After all, the chief business of the American people is business. They are profoundly concerned with producing, buying, selling, investing and prospering in the world. I am strongly of the opinion that the great majority of people will always find these the moving impulses of our life.” – Calvin Coolidge, 30th president of the United States of America
To sift through the disbursements of presidential campaigns, disclosed to the Federal Election Commission, is to be inundated by pages upon pages of mundane revelations regarding the behavior of the semi-human.
Ted Cruz’s campaign spent $110 at 1-800 Flowers on March 19. John Kasich’s frequents an office cleaning service in Ohio. Hillary Clinton’s camp is a recurrent customer at Alley Cat Pizzeria in Manchester. Ben Carson’s staff eats at Wendy’s.
In some ways, Donald Trump’s campaign is just like any other. His staff racks up bills from Staples and Burger Heaven, McDonald’s, Famous Original Ray’s Pizza and Taco Bell. But the tinsel-haired reality TV star has an obvious advantage over his rivals: the name that seems to come up most often on the list of businesses the Trump campaign pays is…Trump.
Between June 16, when he announced his candidacy from the lobby of Trump Tower, through the end of 2015, the Trump campaign spent $2.2 million patronizing Trump businesses. The majority—$2 million—was spent on Tag Air, Inc., where Trump is CEO.
Trump owns a commercial-sized plane, a Boeing 757-200, which is equipped to safely transport 43 passengers in seat belts plated with 24-carat gold—although they might prefer to sit in the dining room, one of two bedrooms, or in the shower, (or they might prefer to travel in his smaller jet or one of his two helicopters).
His aircrafts ferry him around the country, from New York to Des Moines to Manchester to Biloxi, at a steep cost. The bill paid by the campaign on June 16 alone—the day of his formal announcement—was $506,846.
The Trump campaign also made 34 visits to Trump Cafe and Trump Grill, restaurants in Trump Tower where you can eat Ivanka’s Salad (diced tomatoes, cucumbers, red onions, mediterranean cured olives, feta cheese and romaine lettuce with greek dressing…$18) the Gold Label Burger (our premium blend of Angus short rib, sirloin and Kobe brisket…$19) and Mr Trump’s Mother’s Meatloaf (a family recipe, served with mushroom gravy…$13.50).
And paid $90,000 in in-kind rent to Donald J. Trump, Trump CPS LLC and Trump Plaza LLC.
Rent and utilities were also doled out—to the tune of nearly $74,000—to Trump Restaurants LLC and Trump Tower Commercial LLC.
Trump even has his own companies to manage payroll, Trump Payroll Corp. and Trump Tower Commercial LLC, where tens of thousands of dollars are regularly funneled before landing in the pockets of his well-compensated staff.
A look through the disbursements of the rest of the Republican field—Cruz, Marco Rubio, Kasich and Carson—shows that Trump is the only candidate who pays businesses with his name in the title.
And although Trump’s staffers do seem to fly commercial from time to time, he is also the only candidate who uses campaign funds to pay for his own fleet of private aircrafts, or in fact the only candidate with his own fleet of private aircrafts at all. Whether or not this is legal is a tricky question.
By law, candidates cannot profit from their own campaigns. If Carson’s campaign wants to buy 5,000 copies of his book, Gifted Hands, to give out at rallies, Carson cannot legally receive royalty payments from their sale. However, FEC experts I spoke with suggested that the case of Trump is an unprecedented one. Never before has a candidate funneled so much of his money into his own campaign and then relied on his own businesses to run that campaign.

According to The Sunlight Foundation, after the period ending February 20, Trump will have spent $17.5 million of his own funds on his campaign—68% of the total amount he’s raised since June. $7.7 million has come from donations to his website, which features a prominent “DONATE” button in its upper right-hand corner.
But to the FEC, campaign money is just campaign money. The FEC doesn’t differentiate between money put into a campaign by the public or by the candidate.
“This is sort of a strange gray area of the law that I don’t think the FEC has ever addressed,” Paul Ryan, of the Campaign Legal Center, told me.
Were Trump to profit from, say, the sale of 15 Ivanka’s Salads, Ryan said it would be a “technical violation” of FEC law, “but it doesn’t make sense for it to be a violation.”
Why should it matter, in other words, if it was his own money to begin with, if it is being recirculated back into his pocket throughout the course of the campaign?
The 2002 McCain-Feingold Act stipulates that, although candidates can spend as much money as they want on their campaigns, there’s a limited amount of time in the aftermath of a campaign during which the candidate can pay themselves back. It’s why Carly Fiorina emptied her account back into her own pocket the day before election day in 2010. But there’s no law that specifically addresses what to do if a candidate finds a way to make a profit, or at least neutralize their loss, during a campaign.
“It’s kind of a nice deal for Donald Trump,” another experienced campaign finance attorney said. “It’s very common for candidates to loan money to their campaign. It’s even not unusual for a candidate to have the campaign purchase goods or services, usually rent, from an entity that’s owned by the campaign. But the scale here is completely different.”
Millions of dollars are funneling into his campaign, both from himself and from his followers, “and a lot of it is going back into his pocket indirectly,” the attorney said.
“It’s basically recycling.” source

THE PROPHECY NEWS PODCAST: America Has Entered Into A Golden Age Of Deception As The White House Becomes A 24-Hour Trump Propaganda Machine
The Trump White House Has Become The Ministry of Public Enlightenment and Propaganda In A Golden Age Of Misinformation And Deception
Donald Trump keeps telling America that we are living in a “Golden Age,” but that is not what the American people are living through. The people are staring at grocery bills that feel like car payments, insurance premiums that look like mortgage notes, gas prices that refuse to return to sanity, and an economy where every basic necessity has become a monthly ambush. This is not a golden age. This is an age of deception, where the man at the podium tells you everything is wonderful while your wallet, your bank account, your pantry, and your bills testify against him.
“Your gold and silver is cankered; and the rust of them shall be a witness against you, and shall eat your flesh as it were fire. Ye have heaped treasure together for the last days.” James 5:3 (KJB)
On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, the most dangerous lie in politics is not the obvious lie, but the lie wrapped in patriotism, applause, red hats, waving flags, and campaign music. Trump’s “America is back” routine is not leadership, it is performance. America is not back when foreign leaders mock us, manipulate us, flatter us when useful, and ignore us when convenient. America is not back when our own people cannot afford to live in the country they built. America is not back when Washington celebrates power while the citizen is crushed under inflation, debt, surveillance, and endless political theater. What we are watching now is not a pep talk, it is propaganda. It is the manufacturing of a false reality by a political machine that needs its people to believe the slogan more than the evidence right in front of their eyes. “Golden Age” is the talking point. “America is back” is the chant. “Winning like never before” is the stage-managed illusion. But the truth is written in unpaid bills, empty savings accounts, broken trust, and a nation that increasingly feels less like a constitutional republic and more like a managed population being told what to believe. This is how deception works in the last days. It doesn’t always arrive wearing a devil’s mask; sometimes it comes dressed in a suit, standing behind a seal, speaking in superlatives, and promising greatness while presiding over decline. America is being asked to applaud its own collapse and call it revival. The people are being told to cheer while the cost of living rises, the surveillance state expands, the debt explodes, and the world watches a once-great nation stagger under the weight of its own corruption. That is not a golden age. That is the age of deception. America’s White House has become the Ministry of Public Enlightenment and Propaganda, and today we show you just how bad things have become.

The Normally Pro-Trump Sky News Australia Blasts The Iran Peace Deal Calling It “A Tragic And Expensive Waste Of Time” As The President Returns In Failure
Trump’s Iran War Was Supposed To Show Strength But It Ended With Dead Soldiers, Dead Children, A Surviving Regime, And A ‘Paper Peace’ No One Can Explain
There it is, Donald Trump’s war with Iran has ended, but not with victory, regime change, the destruction of Iran’s wicked influence in the Middle East, or some grand masterstroke of “peace through strength,” but with a bewildering memorandum of understanding that leaves the Iranian regime standing, breathing, boasting, and preparing for whatever comes next. Trump’s Iran war should sober up every Christian who still believes that political power can save a collapsing world. It absolutely cannot. The old world system is not being restored. It is being prepared. Prepared for the revealing of the man of sin.
“Behold, ye trust in lying words, that cannot profit.” Jeremiah 7:8 (KJB)
Iran is no innocent victim, the Iranian regime is wicked. It hates Israel, exports terror, persecutes its own people, arms proxies, and dreams of dominance in the region. But acknowledging Iran’s wickedness does not require pretending that every American military adventure is wisdom from above. Two things can be true at the same time: Tehran is evil, and Trump’s Iran war was a disastrous mistake. According to Sky’s Mark Stone, the White House announced that Trump had signed a memorandum aimed at ending the war with Iran, Iran’s foreign minister confirmed Tehran had signed it as well, and yet the whole thing was wrapped in confusion, contradictory timing, remote signatures, Versailles theatrics, and another expected signing still to come. That is not statesmanship, that’s diplomatic vaudeville with piles of dead bodies in the background.
Trump’s signing of the Iran Peace Deal is a slap in the face to the memory of the 13 United States soldiers who gave their lives in the war he started
The most haunting line in the Sky News analysis is this: “So many school children died in Minab. For what?” Sky reports that Trump still would not admit the strike was America’s mistake, while Stone says sources told him that it was. That cuts through all the campaign slogans, all the phony tough-guy branding, all the red MAGA hats, all the applause lines, and all the cable-news spin. Children died, teachers died, and families were shattered. And for what? A paper agreement that does not end Iran’s malign influence, does not make America great again, and does not appear to have solved the thing the war was supposedly fought over.
For years, conservative Christians were told that Trump was the master negotiator, the consumate dealmaker, the man who alone could command the world stage. But this Iran episode reveals something far more sobering: the world stage is not a boardroom, the Middle East is not a casino development, and the enemies of Israel and the West are not impressed by branding. You do not bomb your way into clarity, stumble your way into a memorandum, and then call the rubble you created “peace.”
This is why NTEB has always warned you against confusing politics with prophecy and politicians with deliverers. For the past 17 years, we have been giving you the headlines through the filter of the King James Bible, but we never confuse the two. God is not working through the Republican Party to ‘bring in the kingdom’. God is not waiting for a MAGA foreign policy to fulfill His promises to Israel. Israel would absolutely still exist without Donald Trump, no matter how many times Trump says the opposite. God is not dependent on Trump, Macron, Netanyahu, the G7, NATO, the UN, or the Department of War. The Lord has His own calendar, His own covenants, His own prophetic program, and His own King coming back to rule and reign. Until then, the nations will continue doing what the nations do: wars, rumours of wars, making deals, breaking promises, burying victims, and calling it progress.

Under The Watchful Gaze Of Emmanuel Macron, President Donald Trump Signs Memorandum Of Understanding Effectively Ending The Iran War
Tonight Emmanuel Macron was a witness to history, and perhaps even prophecy as he witnessed Donald Trump sign Iran War MOU preserving Persia
There are moments in history that do not merely happen, they announce themselves. They come dressed in symbolism so thick, so unmistakable, so prophetically loaded, that only the willingly blind could miss what is taking place. Donald Trump signing away the U.S.-Iran War would have been shocking enough. But Donald Trump doing it at Versailles, with Emmanuel Macron standing there as the European prince in the room, blows the lid clean off the whole end times setup. Do you realize what just happened?
“For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.” 1 Thessalonians 5:3 (KJB)
America goes to war with Iran, the terror regime survives, the mullahs remain in power, the Strait of Hormuz becomes a bargaining chip, sanctions relief enters the conversation, and the whole thing is served up beneath the royal chandeliers of Versailles on a golden platter. And there, in the middle of the frame, stands Emmanuel Macron — polished, prepared, globalist, European, Roman, and just waiting for his time to come. We told you years ago to watch this man.
BREAKING NEWS: Under the watchful eye of Emmanuel Macron, US President Donald Trump signed the Memorandum Of Understanding that will preserve the Iranian terror regime in power. Wow, if only you had a King James Bible, you would know what just happened. https://t.co/kjJ6Z68I22
— Now The End Begins (@NowTheEndBegins) June 18, 2026
We told you Emmanuel Macron was not like the others. We showed you the strange prophetic markers gathering around him. We showed you the Assyrian trail. We showed you the revived Roman Empire architecture. We showed you the Vatican flavor, the Charlemagne language, the European sovereignty doctrine, the militarized Europe agenda, and the way this man seems to appear whenever the world stage starts bending toward Bible prophecy.
And now here he is again. Not off to the side. Not in the shadows. Not as a footnote. But standing right there as America signs terms with Persia.
Christian, don’t miss what just happened. Iran was not defeated. Iran was preserved. The terror regime was left standing. The mullahs were not dragged out. The nuclear question was not finally buried. The proxies were not erased. Instead, the world was given another “framework,” another “process,” another “window,” another globalist peace package that manages evil instead of destroying it.
That is how the coming kingdom of Antichrist is being built. It is being assembled piece by piece, treaty by treaty, summit by summit, war by war, crisis by crisis, and signing ceremony by signing ceremony. Each deal teaches the world to think globally. Each crisis teaches the world to surrender sovereignty. Each war teaches the world to beg for a savior. Each peace agreement teaches the world to accept the man who can make the madness stop. That man is coming. Versailles wasn’t just a dinner, a signing, or another diplomatic photo-op. It was a prophetic snapshot of the world that is coming. America weakened, Iran preserved, Europe elevated, and the man from France standing in the frame like the Assyrian waiting in the wings.
