Robert Bigelow Gives Trump $1M for Legal Fees

The Spin

Anti-Trump narrative

In classic Trump fashion, the former president-turned-criminal defendant is using other people's money to pay for his own mess. Trump is drowning in legal bills and faces potentially sky-high penalties from other ongoing cases. He already had to scrape $50M in donations to pay legal fees last year, and that number will only increase as prosecutors continue to beat him in court.

Salon

Pro-Trump narrative

Unlike fraudulent neoconservatives such as Nikki Haley, whose number one donor is a Democrat, Trump is receiving financial help to fight the political prosecutions being waged against him. Bigelow's donations aren't bailing out Trump but rather attempting to prevent the leading GOP candidate and his supporters from losing this election to Haley or Biden — who are both merely two sides of the same coin.
