Former President Donald Trump and his running mate JD Vance have announced plans to host a campaign fundraiser shortly before the 2024 election. The event, titled the “Ultra MAGA Experience,” offers a premium package priced at just under $1 million.
The fundraiser will be held at Madison Square Garden in New York City on October 27, just a little over a week before election day. It offers six different tiers of donation packages, ranging from the “President’s Club Experience” at $5,000 to the “Ultra MAGA Experience” at $924,600.
The contents of the Ultra MAGA Experience are still uncertain, but it is confirmed that the fundraiser will occur on the same day and at the same venue as Trump’s campaign rally in New York City.
According to New York Times reporter Teddy Schleifer, during the final ten days of the campaign, Trump will be primarily focused on fundraising. This observation highlights Trump’s money concerns, as both he and Vance are allocating valuable time in New York on October 27th.
Throughout the year, Trump has organized numerous fundraisers, both domestically and internationally, amassing an impressive sum of hundreds of millions of dollars.
In April, Trump successfully organized multiple fundraisers in different parts of California, including Silicon Valley and Los Angeles. Additionally, he achieved a remarkable feat by raising a record-breaking $50.5 million at a fundraiser in Palm Beach, Florida.
On Saturday, the news broke that a Trump fundraiser had caused controversy with comments reported by the New York Times. According to the report, the former president referred to Vice President Kamala Harris as “retarded.”
