What happens to the money

[LuFins Dad]

If Trump stepped aside or was unable to run?

We’ve recently learned that Kamala would need to be the candidate or the money they’ve already raised can’t be used… Well, Trump doesn’t have a running mate, yet. What happens if he can’t continue as the candidate?

I think Trump money, just like Biden/Harris money, could be used on behalf of another campaign, just not given to or spent in coordination with another campaign.

Basically it becomes a superpac

There are federal rules on what can be done with leftover campaign funds after a candidate bows out. See https://www.investopedia.com/articles/markets/042716/what-happens-campaign-funds-after-elections.asp

Among the "permissible uses" is this:

Unlimited transfers to a local, state, or national political party committee like the Democratic or Republican National Committees.
