Side note: millions in donations have been used to pay Trumps companies/properties for their services & use. Good business. I'd loan money to my campaign & reimburse my companies with donations too, I just wouldnt spin it as self funding while pandering for donations.

Not to mention you often see him doing press and campaign events at places he owns. You know he is billing the campaign for that and will pay himself back with the donor money. It is smart business, but I think it also goes to show that he has intended to have someone other than him finance his campaign since the start.
