Editor,
Donald Trump, you just gave yourself a $1.8 million slush fund and forever IRS tax audit immunity for your entire family while many Americans can’t afford gas and groceries.

Correction-$1.8 billion!
Correction- $1.8 billion!
Hilarious. Thank, Ms. Quirk, for reminding us what winning feels like. Your emotional outrage is overriding the facts again. Why would Trump need another measly $1.8 million? We could look at this $1.8 million as a reimbursement since Trump has been donating his presidential salary each year. But it is likely his investments, even with a minimal gain in the stock market, would easily net more than $1.8 million. BTW, your mistaken amount, by over 1000x, is not going to Trump, but to provide compensation to those attacked by the corrupt and treasonous Biden administration. Imagine the volcanic explosion and heads melting by Dems if Trump were to receive potentially $10 billion – the amount reported in his lawsuit. Have a Trump-tastic day!
