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.
