Former President Donald Trump’s political action committee has paid the French-born stylist who designed Melania Trump’s inaugural ball gown more than $260,000 for “strategy consulting” since the start of last year, filings with the Federal Election Commission show.
Hervé Pierre Braillard was paid $108,000 by the Save America PAC during the first six months of 2023, receiving the money in increments of $18,000 each month, according to a half-year report filed with the FEC Monday night.
Braillard, who goes by Hervé Pierre professionally, also received $152,500 in 2022, broken down into eight monthly payments of $18,000 between May and December of that year — along with an initial $6,000 payment for April and a $2,500 “year-end bonus.” *** My role is to dress the First Lady and advise her – I’m not a stylist; I am an adviser, and she is adamant about that,” Braillard told Vogue in 2017.
*** Save America, which is primarily supported by small-dollar donations, began 2022 with a nine-figure war chest that has dwindled to fewer than $4 million in cash on hand as of the end of June, FEC data indicates.
Part of what kept the PAC in the black was a $12.25 million rebate from an initial $60 million transfer to Make America Great Again Inc., a PAC that’s also aligned with Trump’s 2024 bid.
Save America also dished out more than $21 million in the first six months of this year to foot the bill for legal advice for Donald Trump and some of his associates. ***

Did you donate quite a bit to the Trump campaign?
I’m guessing so to spend your day on it…
I get tons of crap for making the slightest negative comment about Trump, obviously you are getting a ton right now you probably don’t care and I don’t care but it’s good to see people posting things that show the complete picture of what’s going on.
“I told Melania to either fire her old stylist or she wasn’t getting any money. And I was leaving in six hours. And, son of a bitch, she was fired!”
The grift continues
No worries cause if they run out of stuff to investigate him about...they’ll just make crap up.

“WHY DID ROB DESANCTUS DO THIS/!>!@”?
You’re not laughing at anything. You’re a globalist supporter, who has no issue with this ultra corrupt government giving away hundreds of billions in American treasure to corrupt foreign countries.
SO, Trump shouldn’t defend himself...?
This. Yes.
Dr Jill could spend that in a month and still look like she’s wearing draperies from the 50’s.
Reagan was thinking of you when he mentioned those folks who know so much that isn’t true!
Two decades plus of posts on this site contravene your bogus charges. You should run for AG in NY!
No commit from The New York Post about all the millions the Biden hustled and crimes but a stylist is real news huh Moe.
If ya support using what’s left of the American treasure on ultra corrupt countries like Ukraine, you’re a globalist. This is not complex.
If I’ve ever supported that you could readily quote it.
But you can’t.
This is not complex.
You’re an anti Trump neocon. Anyone can read your history. C’mon.
I too am voting for Trump.
Those who donate to President Trump, donate because they support him and the policies he put in place to overcome the damages of the Obama administration. Not to appease the media. I don’t care how he uses my money. He can pay for his and her massages for him and Melania—once a month—if they wish. I don’t care!
Note that each time more financial corruption is revealed in regards to the Biden family, the media and DOJ immediately start more persecution of President Trump.
I. DO. NOT. CARE.
I’m voting for Trump!
I’m going to start to contribute. I have no problem with how he’s spending money.
“All in the family: Democrat Maxine Waters pays thousands more from campaign to daughter”
You win this week’s Argumentum hominem paleae Award AKA The Fallacious Gibberish Award. This award recognizes and celebrates those who put forth the most egregious logical fallacy of the week. Congratulations.
I consider Trump a failure, but he still got my vote, precisely because he called the neocons’ wars “stupid” and promised to end them.
There is nothing in my posting history, going back to the invasion of Iraq, to support your lies.
If there was you could quote it.
But you can’t.
Because you’re lying.
The choice is upon you to accept the truth, or keep lying. What does someone with your character do in that situation?
