Trump demands 5% cut from GOP candidates who use his 'name, image and likeness' in ads
Campaign aides said the rules are designed to protect donors who falsely believe they are contributing to Trump's campaign
Donald Trump is trying to bring into politics a phenomenon that's taking off in college athletics: money for use of the former president's name, image and likeness in campaign ads.
In a letter this week, the Trump presidential campaign asked all down-ballot GOP campaigns for at least a 5% cut of the money raised from advertising that features the party's 2024 presumptive White House nominee.
"We ask that all candidates and committees who choose to use President Trump’s name, image, and likeness split a minimum of 5% of all fundraising solicitations to Trump National Committee JFC," said the April 15 letter signed by campaign co-campaign managers Susie Wiles and Chris LaCivita.

Don't be so sure. Maybe they'll stop using his name and likeness and those that are "moderate" Republicans will find a way to hold their nose and vote when they otherwise wouldn't.
More famous than Genghis Khan? That’s an achievement.
