10. Maybe they overspent

One solution to raise cash to pay off their debt would be for Kamala to fight Mike Tyson in a PPV event.

Sounds like Kammie Kampaign financial incompetence was worse than currently reported. Maybe those millions of $$$$ to buy celebrity appearances (not just Oprah's production company!) could have been better used elsewhere.

...

Or Kammie and Creepy Porn Liar could go on, ummmmm, tour together, Kammie to pay off her Kampaign debt, CPL to pay the judgment she owed Trump. I'm sure a truck-stop tour would do well, maybe they could do a BOGO deal ... :bolt:
