CNN recently reported on Monday that former President Donald Trump’s campaign is having a big cash problem, and one commentator posited that those problems may have even bigger ramifications via Mediaite.
It has been noted CNN’s S.E. Cupp was part of a discussion on CNN News Central on Monday about the Trump campaign’s money problems, and while speaking with anchor Kate Bolduan, she said the “vulnerable” position that the former president found himself in could imply a larger issue that goes beyond just legal and financial:
Trump is going to have to do what he has no problem doing and has done before, which is kind of grift off of his own supporters, right? Trying to get them to pay in to help “stop the steal” and really use a lot of that to line his own pockets. He’s using the RNC as a personal piggy bank. He’s going to rely on the existing infrastructure and his own fans to help pull him out of this financial morass.
But the thing that worries me that I don’t see a lot of people talking about is the legal and financial jeopardy that this would-be president is in now would seem to me a national security issue. And, I mean, I think it’s more dangerous than just, “Isn’t it funny Trump could be bankrupted?” “Isn’t it funny he’s having to maybe use mismatched furniture?” Someone with that much to lose, and who has to fork up that much cash, who has that many legal battles looming ahead, I think is a really vulnerable person for our national security issues.
