GoFundMeā€™s Terms of Service specifically forbid fundraising for ā€œthe legal defense of alleged financial and violent crimes,ā€ so this fundraiser should be taken down. The next step would be for Trump to set up the equivalent sort of thing in-house, the way he made his own Twitter, then I really donā€™t know how this gets regulated.

At 2.9% of $355M, I'd bet $10.3M in fees will win out.

Itā€™s been up for about two weeks. TOS doesnā€™t matter if youā€™re Trump - remember r/thedonald, Twitter, Facebook, YouTubeā€¦

To be fair, this isn't for defense, it's to pay the fine, or post the bond at least.

Plus, it's their site, they can ignore their own terms of service.
