Murphy: Six Weeks In, This White House Is On Its Way To Being The Most Corrupt In U.S. History
According to Perplexity:
Recent reports indicate that business leaders have been paying substantial amounts to meet with President Donald Trump at his Mar-a-Lago estate. A one-on-one meeting costs $5 million, while attending a candlelight dinner requires a $1 million reservation.
These events are organized by MAGA Inc., a super PAC supporting Trump’s 2024 campaign. The funds possibly contribute to Trump's future presidential library. Concerns are raised about the ethical implications of such fundraising and the potential influence bought by donors. These expensive dinners, unique in their timing, location, and cost, differ from traditional presidential fundraisers.
Specific advertisements promoting these meetings have not been publicly disclosed. However, the events have been covered in the media, highlighting the high costs associated with attending.
Additionally, reports indicate that wealthy business figures pay between $1 million and $5 million for various levels of access to President Trump at his Mar-a-Lago estate. The publication obtained access to an invitation revealing that Trump charges $5 million for private one-on-one meetings, while group dining events with the president cost attendees $1 million per seat.
