French-born designer Hervé Pierre Braillard’s name is back in the headlines. Alas, it’s not his fashions that have tongues wagging — it’s his reported salary. On July 31, 2023, the Federal Election Commission released the mid-year financial disclosures of Donald Trump’s political action committee, Save America.
While some of the committee’s hefty spending came as no surprise to most, including the staggering $21.6 million, they shelled out for “legal consulting,” other expenditures definitely raised some eyebrows, including the amount the committee doled out to Braillard. According to the official document, Braillard was paid a whopping $108,000 by the organization for “strategy consulting,” broken down into six monthly payments of $18,000.

Perhaps, however, none of this should really come as a shock. In 2022, Fox News reported that the same political action committee paid Braillard a total of $132,000 for the same service. We trust you can do the math, but just in case, that’s a total of $240,000 Braillard has raked in solely from Save America. Not too shabby, right?! But what exactly does “strategy consulting” entail? Funny, you should ask.
