How is anything he’s done not fragrantly illegal?

He can spend all his money on legal fees. There's nothing wrong with that. The Stormy Daniels issue was because it wasn't a legal fee, he just lied and said it was.

Maybe, just maybe, if you'd quit criming, you wouldn't have to spend so much on legal fees.

Of course, asking Trump to not crime is like asking a fish to not swim.
