...Like, when Trump consistently and significantly overcharged the Secret Service to rent a hotel room at his property, that's Trump dishonestly taking taxpayer money and putting it in his back pocket. Or, when foreign governments rent an entire floor of rooms at Trump's hotel, and don't even use those rooms, and then Trump gives favorable treatment to that government, despite that government being hostile to America and its interests, that is the foreign government putting money in Trump's back pocket.
The convicted felon Trump has a lot of back pockets.

So, you don't understand the difference between 'celebrity endorsement' paid to an individual, and a company being paid for 'event production'?
I think I understand it. Let's see:

Ceeboo, when you buy a burger at In & Out for, say $10, and you hand your $10 over to the guy at the till, does the whole $10 that you paid simply wash through that business, entirely intact, and land in the shareholders pocket as $10?
Premise 1. Eyewitness testimony is notoriously unreliable.
Premise 2. The best evidence for the Book of Mormon is eyewitness testimony.
Conclusion. Therefore, the best evidence for the Book of Mormon is notoriously unreliable.

Any thoughts on, for example, Oprah taking a million dollars? (If true)
Things cost money. People work for money. The more economically valuable a person's contribution is perceived to be, the more they will get paid.

"I have learned with what evils tyranny infects a state. For it frustrates all the virtues, robs freedom of its lofty mood, and opens a school of fawning and terror, inasmuch as it leaves matters not to the wisdom of the laws, but to the angry whim of those who are in authority.”
At least Harris’ team seems to pay their bills. : D
Indeed, whereas his Orangeness just pays his bills with the symbolic currency of his noisome feculent rear end.
