Related: About this forumNames of campaign donors to be flashed during live stream of Trump's State of the Union speech
Seriously?
President Trump is seeking to parlay his first State of the Union address on Tuesday into cash for his reelection campaign by offering supporters a chance to see their name flashed on the screen during a broadcast of the speech.
In a fundraising solicitation on Monday, Trump offered those willing to pay at least $35 the opportunity to see their name displayed during a live streaming of the address on his campaign website.
This is a movement, the solicitation says. Its not about just one of us. Its about ALL of us. Which is why your name deserves to be displayed during Tuesday nights speech.
The web page to which the solicitation links offers donors the opportunity to contribute as much as $2,700 the maximum amount allowed per election.
