According to the Complaint, Trump accepted excessive or impermissible contributions from The Trump Organization, LLC (Trump LLC), in connection with a website www. ShouldTrumpRun.com("ShouldTrumpRun"), created by Trump LLC employee Michael Cohen, and from Stewart Rahr, who paid for a flight Cohen took on Trump's privately owned jet. The Complaint also alleges that ShouldTrumpRun is a political committee that has failed to register with the Commission.
