Yeah, it seems like a largely a symbolic victory, unless 45* pays out of pocket, which seems unlikely.
Is the $3Million ruled 'punitive'?
And if so, does that mean that it must come out of his pocket, and supporters can't ante up?
Of course they've probably already given him monies that aren't campaign funds.
He can always sell some 'I am not a RAPIST!' NFTs.

Any of his PACs can pay the judgment as they do
other legal fees.
The
RNC can also pay the judgment as they have paid for his attorneys and legal fees in the past.

No personal responsibility, no repercussions, he'll have forgotten all about it by dinner tonight - but the maids will secretly hope he doesn't order his fries with extra ketchup.

Which gates? Within an hour of the verdict he'd already raised twice the award and has only just begun.

I tend to doubt that a verdict against personal conduct can be paid by campaign donations. Trump may have some other fund, but again, I doubt such donations would be tax deductible.
