Trump super PAC's new political guru must wait to do work

[...] Federal Election Commission rules require Jolly to wait 120 days to begin helping the super PAC with political advertising strategy.

Great America's statement about his hiring hints that the group is going to keep Jolly from political work at first, as required by federal regulators.

"Stuart will give us valuable counsel in the coming months and then help lead our political team in the final critical weeks of the campaign," said Eric Beach, a California-based fundraiser who in February started Great America with Bill Doddridge, the chief executive officer of the Jewelry Exchange.

Wealthy donors who want to help Trump in his race against likely Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton are getting mixed signals — starting with the candidate himself — as to where to send their checks.

[...] as recently as April 27, the Trump campaign sent a "disavowal notice" to the FEC about Great America, and Trump's friend and informal political adviser Roger Stone continually disparages the group on social media.

Traditionally, super political action committees go after big money because they face no contribution limits.
