Chris LaCivita, a co-campaign manager for Donald Trump's 2024 campaign, plans to sue The Daily Beast for reporting that he was paid $22 million when it was actually $19.2 million. This discrepancy, which the outlet has since corrected, has purportedly harmed LaCivita's reputation and the fundraising capabilities of the Trump campaign and RNC. The Daily Beast staunchly defended their accuracy. Additionally, internal reports suggest that Trump's anger over the situation led to strained relations with LaCivita, reminiscent of scenarios on The Apprentice.
LaCivita’s lawyers maintain that the erroneous report has damaged his reputation and negatively impacted the fundraising abilities of both the RNC and Trump’s campaign.
The Daily Beast spokesperson asserted their commitment to accuracy, stating they would defend their reporting on LaCivita's finances vigorously if needed.
Reports indicated that Trump was furious over the erroneous figure, leading to tensions with LaCivita, who felt akin to a scene from The Apprentice.
LaCivita has been paid by the Trump campaign a total of $19.2 million, contrary to The Daily Beast's claim of $22 million, leading to significant scrutiny.
