At least $2.87 million has been spent on three government-funded ads promoting Trump, according to The Washington Post. Two are running on CNN and MS NOW, among other networks. The White House calls them public service announcements.
Democratic Reps. Jamie Raskin and George Whitesides have now asked the GAO and Office of Special Counsel to investigate whether the campaign violates federal law.
Trump says the ads are for the country, not an election campaign:
“I’m not running for office.”
