Just another scam to avoid taxes. A donation is deductable. A contribution to avoid taxes is not charity.

The campaigns can be taxed for the money they bring in? I never knew that.

None of that campaign money is taxable by any lever of government, You just pulled that "fact" out of you rear.

The donation is a questionable use of PAC money that is why it is making a headline and Fox news will point out every flaw on the D side of the isle, just like the rest of MSM will look for the R side.
FEC violations seem to be common in all campaigns and because they are treated as a civil penalty most campaigns have 'friends' who established the PAC, so they do what they want with the PAC money.
The Federal Election Commission was created in 1972 to bring transparency to the election money process.

Thanks for the information sir. I don't know how this gets cleaned up, but in my opinion it needs to be. We've heard about stuff like this forever.

LTC John Shaw - I believe the technical term for what you describe is: Talking out of both sides of your face. :)
