“I’m self-funding. I’m putting up my own money,” Trump says in one of several Facebook videos on the issue. “It’s something I don’t know that I’m given proper credit for, but you know what, I feel better about it because nobody has me. I’m working for you.”

Trump signals he's open to soliciting big donations.

Donald Trump has largely self-funded his campaign because he's running as an individual in the Republican presidential primary, but as the party’s standard-bearer atop the GOP ticket, he may be open to accepting contributions from big donors, according to his convention manager, Paul Manafort.

“He has basically said, ‘I am only running my campaign right now, I’m not taking money from anybody, and I’m not going to take any money from anybody,’” Manafort continued. “Whether, how he will participate, in a broader context is yet to be determined.” 

Thanks Paul, we totally get it.
