Legal fee's are astronomical even if you're not even being indicted. For instance Michael Caputo always complains on CNN that his legal fees are basically the cost of a nice house and all he's done is talk to the special counsel. So hiring the likes of Lanny Davis and all his other lawyers to negotiate and naviagte all of this even if he's is "telling the truth" can be costing him probably millions. I dont feel sorry for him, i am merely explaing why he may want some assitance outside of his own money which is probaly not legal anyway to go through this. Some people may donate as they see him as a ticket to taking down the president. It wont hurt him either way. Stormy Daniels has a go fund me aswel.
