President Trump on Wednesday night will attend a fundraiser at Trump International Hotel that is charging $100,000 per person.
The money will go towards Trump Victory, a joint fundraising committee for the president's 2020 presidential campaign and the Republican National Committee (RNC).
Attendees must donate the $100,000 sum in order to gain entrance to a closed-door roundtable event with the president, but they also have the option of donating $70,000 for a photo opportunity with the president or $35,000 to attend a dinner at the hotel where Trump will speak, the Wall Street Journal reported.

.... undivided attentions.
Pay to play, as said above, or you are tossed out of the stadium and not welcomed to join in the game.
