CNN —For any Republican presidential candidate not named Donald Trump, making the first primary debate on August 23 in Milwaukee is an essential obstacle to overcome.
The Republican National Committee set minimum viability requirements that numerous candidates are having trouble meeting.
But the FEC – which is evenly divided between Democrats and Republicans – often struggles to agree on enforcement actions.
But that perhaps is not surprising – given how large Trump, his former boss-turned-nemesis, looms over the hard-core Republican base.
How is Trump making money these days?
