Not Entirely Self-Funded Trump repeated his claim that he is a “self-funder” when it comes to funding his campaign. Not completely, he isn’t.
Trump’s presidential campaign received $19.4 million in 2015, according to Trump’s year-end filing with the Federal Election Commission in January. Trump loaned his campaign $12.6 million of that amount, and he made additional in-kind contributions of $219,000. So, nearly 66 percent of the campaign’s money has come from Trump. The other 34 percent, or $6.5 million, has come from individual donors. FactChecking the Ninth GOP Debate
Right now, it appears that Trump is evolving on the very issue that set him apart: his billionaire's pledge to pay for his presidential campaign himself.
The Trump organization also prepared this spring to solicit wealthy donors, through a new superPAC. It's called Make America Great Again. Donald Trump's Evolution On Campaign Fundraising : It's All Politics : NPR
So what number lie is this for Trump?

You mean he is supposed to reject money. This is not lying.
Uh reread the first sentence from "Fact-Check" the lie came from the liar's own lips, you know like his BS about the "thousands and thousands of Muslims in NJ celebrating 9/11"!
He pledged to finance his own campaign and bragged how rich he is, which was also a lie,since he has less than 1/2 of what he claims!

Um...actually it is lying. He claimed 100% of his campaign is self-funded when in fact it isn't. That is a lie.
