In what often seems like a dystopia for Americans, businessmen or tycoons have gone so far as to invest up to $5 million to meet privately with Donald Trump at his Florida resort. According to WIRED, those interested are willing to pay this large sum of money for an exclusive evening with the president at his private Mar-a-Lago club in Palm Beach; while those who do so collectively in a group dinner, the figure drops to 1 million per person.
According to the invitation obtained by the same media outlet, at the ‘candlelit dinner with the special guest’ held last Saturday, prospective guests were asked to fork out $1 million to reserve a seat at Mar-a-Lago. The resort’s restaurant offers continental, New World, classic and New Caribbean menus. Members can dine for breakfast, lunch, dinner and Sunday brunch in the main dining room, in the Tea House or on the outdoor patio.
‘You are invited to a candlelight dinner with special guest President Donald J. Trump,’ reads the invitation, under a “MAGA INC” heading. MAGA Inc, or Make America Great Again Inc, is a super PAC that supported Trump’s 2024 presidential campaign. ‘Additional details provided to RSVP. Reservations will be made on a first-come, first-served basis. Space is very limited. $1,000,000 per person.’
‘Donald J. Trump is participating in this event only as a guest speaker and is not soliciting funds or donations,’ adds the inscription of this “presidential meeting” which is a great opportunity for those who want to align themselves with Donald Trump, following in the footsteps of the great technology magnates who have shown their unconditional support for him such as Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos or Mark Zuckerberg.
The destination of all the money raised at the soirees has not yet been revealed, but the media outlet revealed that a direct source said the funds would be invested in the future presidential library, which is expected to be built after Trump leaves office.
