		</div><p>Donald Trump doubled his campaign expenses last month, yet was still spending at a far slower rate than Hillary Clinton.</p>
<p>New finance documents show the Republican presidential nominee&#8217;s campaign spent about US$18.5m in July.</p>
<p>By comparison, the Democratic presidential nominee spent about US$38m.</p>
<p>The New York businessman gave his campaign another $2m in recent weeks. He had pledged to contribute as part of a fundraising pitch to small donors, telling them he would match their efforts up to that amount.</p>
<p>In all, his campaign brought in $37m for the month. Clinton&#8217;s campaign raised $52m.</p>
<p>Mr Trump has continued to increase the size of his operation, putting $5m this week into his first batch of TV ads.</p>
<p>Last month Mr Trump brought in some new consultants and firms, July reports to the Federal Election Commission show.</p>
<p>At the end of July, the campaign paid $100,000 to Cambridge Analytica, a deep-dive data firm that did business with Republican opponent Ted Cruz.</p>
<p>Hedge fund billionaire Robert Mercer, who contributed $2m to a pro-Trump super political action committee in July, is an investor in Cambridge.</p>
<p>The Trump filings also show some old ties.</p>
<p>Two weeks after campaign manager Corey Lewandowski was ousted, the Trump campaign sent his firm, Green Monster Consulting, another $20,000 cheque.</p>
<p>That is about the same amount it had paid him each month while he was running the campaign.</p>
<p>At the time of the latest payment, Mr Lewandowski was already on the payroll of CNN, where he is a political contributor.</p>
