WASHINGTON Despite previous claims that the Republican National Committee would not be paying Donald Trump s various legal bills, an invitation to a Palm Beach, Florida fundraiser next month shows that the Save America committee Trump has been using for that purpose will, in fact, be a recipient of donor money.

The fundraiser for a joint committee called Trump 47 is to be held on April 6, according to an invitation obtained by HuffPost, with a chairman level donation set at $814,600 per person, and a host level at $250,000.

A Tuesday filing with the Federal Election Commission states that Trump 47 raises money for the Trump campaign, as well as Save America, the Republican National Committee and 40 state-level Republican committees.

I told you so, said Michael Steele, a former RNC chairman. Why do folks still believe the BS coming from Trump, the RNC or his campaign when it comes to RNC donor money? The RNC will absolutely find ways to pay his bills because otherwise why is Lara Trump co-chair? For her expert political acumen or the state party operations shes run?

(Lara Trump is the former presidents daughter-in-law. She was installed as the RNCs co-chair late last month.)

The invitation does not state how much of each donation would go to each entity, and the Trump campaign did not respond to a HuffPost query.

However, a supplementary document obtained by The Associated Press states that of each donation, the first $6,600 will go to the Trump campaign, the next $5,000 to Save America and the rest to the RNC and the various state parties.
