Trump paid $12.5 million to his own businesses during race - Dec. 16, 2016
Are you trying to tell us that there weren't any expenses for use of his personal planes during the campaign.....that amount is actually a bargain if you compare it to the amounts Hillary spent.....so once again Trump is actually saving money like he promised.......

From OP's link, a quote from general counsel of the Campaign Legal Center:

"If he did it legally and it was in the ordinary course of business, you have to say that he's allowed to do that, " Noble said. "If he was doing it to make a profit off of it, and he charged more than he was supposed to have charged, then there is a problem." There is no evidence the Trump campaign did that.

This is only the beginning and barely scratches the surface. Trump came to fleece the USA. His useful idiots will hand it to him and his cronies on a silver platter.

The Clinton's never spend their own money. They have lived in public housing their entire career. I doubt if Hillary or Bill even carry a credit card.

Let him hang himself by piling on the self-dealing. He listens to no one and his personal attorneys seem oblivious to the law anyway. But there are attorneys, Dems and more than a few Republicans waiting to pounce with the Emoluments Clause. Every step he takes, every move he makes...

Sour grapes again.......

Libs wish they could "pay themselves" $12.5 million.

Ya gotta have the $12.5 million, before you can pay it to "yourself"

Libs have to steal the $12.5 million before they could pay themselves.

With the number of events/rallies that Trump arraigned the $12.5 million figure should have been much higher. Heck Clinton went through $1.2 billion and was unsuccessful: Hillary Clinton’s losing campaign cost a record $1.2B | New York Post. We should all be screaming that he ripped himself off; he should take much more!
