Great Optics - As the government is possibly shutting down!

JUST IN: Trump hosting $100k-per-couple inauguration anniversary gala at Mar-a-Lago



President Trump is expected to celebrate the first anniversary of his inauguration this weekend with a party at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida, according to Bloomberg News.

Tickets for the event, which will be held Saturday night, begin at $100,000 a pair, which pays for dinner and a photo with Trump. Attendees can pay $250,000 to participate in a roundtable with Trump.

Bloomberg reports that the event is being jointly hosted by Republican National Committee (RNC) Chairwoman Ronna Romney McDaniel and billionaire casino mogul Steve Wynn, and proceeds from the event will benefit Trump’s presidential campaign and the RNC.

Sucks to be her, but SHE, unlike La David Johnson, did know what she signed up for. What a rewarding life.
