WASHINGTON — As former President Donald Trump considers when to announce his candidacy for another presidential bid in 2024, he faces a costly quandary.
As head of the Save America political action committee, he controls $103 million, making him the Republican Party kingmaker. Once he declares a run — moving from kingmaker to possible king — federal law puts the money beyond his reach.
The former president has been indicating for months that he will make another White House bid. He’s said he’s made his decision but can’t disclose it — at least not until after November’s midterm elections — because of those campaign finance restrictions.
