With trials pushed back, Trump sees first big dip in legal bills

As former President Donald Trump faces a supercharged Democratic fundraising effort, a persistent drag on his campaign’s coffers may be easing: legal expenses. A new report shows that the Save America political action committee paid about $827,000 in June for Trump’s legal expenses — the first time a monthly total has dipped below $1 million in two years. Since July 2022, the Trump-aligned PAC has averaged $4 million a month on such costs, mostly associated with his criminal and civil cases, according to an Associated Press analysis of campaign finance records.
