So, as Katy Tur/MSnow points out, Trump back-pedaling to stop stealing from taxpayers to create broadly political ads designed to support GOP campaigns to switch to *directing* PACS to pay for them is just switching from grossly illegal to less illegal modes. Make him reimburse us & pay for it all.
