NEW -- If you have spent years sending a few dollars a month out of your paycheck or Social Security check to Donald Trump's campaign, congratulations. You helped Trump funnel $8.5 million of that back into his own cash

Other GOP candidates and committees kicked in another $2 million.

The biggest spender in that category?

America First Action, which spent $573,132 at Trump's DC hotel.

Through a trust that he controls, Trump owns the hotels, golf courses and buildings that received the money, with every penny of profit flowing to him personally.

The HuffPost analysis is based on a review of filings by the Trump campaign, the RNC and their two joint fundraising committees, representing all spending reported between Jan. 20, 2017 and Nov. 23, the last date for the final filing period this year.

Trump Tower, the NYC skyscraper where Trump keeps a penthouse residence and his business offices, received $1,716,155 in the form of rent payments, even though the campaign was based in a high-rise office building in Arlington, VA, across the Potomac River from the White House.
