A longtime friend of Donald Trump wanted to charge $250,000 a person for a chance to hang out with the former president, Miami GP organizers have told him no.
There will not be a fundraiser for the Trump campaign at the upcoming F1 Miami Grand Prix . According to a report in the Washington Post, the organizers of the race sent a letter to a well-known Trump ally denying him use of his suite to fund raise for the former president who is running for reelection this year. Steven Witkoff is a longtime friend of Trump. He testified in the civil fraud trial for Trump that recently resulted in a New York judge ruling against Trump and fining him $350 million.
“If this is true, we regret to inform you that your suite license will be revoked, you will not be allowed to attend the race at any time, and we will refund you in full.”The Post reached out to Witkoff Friday evening. “This is something fake, for sure,” he said and declined to comment further.It’s unclear if Trump will still attend the event, though the Post reports that the secret service has reached out to race organizers to coordinate a visit.
