According to what I've heard & read, the campaign is liable for all expenses when it's a partisan speech, his rallies for example, however, it gets gray when he includes round table discussions and things of that nature and he's been known to work one of them in so that it's then taxpayer funded. Partisan, the campaign pays, bipartisan, we pay and no matter what it is, we pay for the Secret Service and expenses associated with them, golf carts and hotel/food, etc.
