NEW YORK (1010 WINS) -- President Trump is scheduled to arrive in New Jersey Thursday night, where he will head to Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, before he kicks off a weekend of fundraising in the Hamptons that's expected to net millions of dollars.

He is set to raise $15 million for his campaign and the Republican National Committee, according to CNBC. The funds raised will go to the Trump Victory Committee.

CNBC reported that a Trump Victory Committee official confirmed the amount expected to be raised.

1. Trump is funneling their money into his personal assets?

2. If he loses (looking likely), they lose that money?

3. Socially, he's a boor. Even if you're drinking, he's a boor.

I wonder if anyone can compute how much these millionaires and billionaires saved with the republican tax cut and what percentage of that money they are returning to their corrupt benefactors. Kind of like a delayed bribe. Pretty sure they would come out ahead of the game.
