Trump Offers $924,600 ‘Ultra MAGA Experience’ for Donors Amid Campaign Push: ‘Trump’s Desperate, He Needs Money’

For a jaw-dropping $924,600, supporters of former President Donald Trump can indulge in what’s being called a “special evening” full of “Ultra MAGA” experiences with the former president himself.

This nearly million-dollar fundraising effort comes just weeks before the 2024 presidential election, as Trump looks to bolster his campaign funds. New York Times reporter Teddy Schleifer shared details of the event on X (formerly Twitter), revealing a screenshot of the invitation that was sent to Trump’s donor base.

“What will Trump be doing during the final ten days of the campaign? Fundraising,” Schleifer wrote. “This speaks to Trump’s money issues — both he and Vance are spending precious time in New York on Oct. 27.”

Trump is scheduled to host a rally at Madison Square Garden in New York City that night, a highly anticipated event in the lead-up to the election. Some critics have drawn controversial comparisons to a Nazi rally led by Adolf Hitler in 1939, though Trump’s supporters are likely to brush off such accusations as politically motivated attacks.

Beyond the headline-grabbing “Ultra MAGA Experience,” Trump’s fundraising efforts offer several other pricey tiers for loyal backers willing to open their wallets. According to the invitation, a Team Trump 2024 experience is available to those who can donate $250,000 or raise $500,000. For a more modest contribution, the Team America First package is priced at $100,000, or $200,000 if raised from others.

The Club 47 Experience will set donors back $50,000 or $70,000, depending on the specific package. And for the budget-conscious MAGA supporter, the President’s Club Experience is a relatively reasonable $5,000. These high-ticket events come as Trump navigates ongoing legal battles and criticisms of his campaign’s financial health. In May, the former president made headlines when he was convicted of falsifying business records by a New York City jury.

The case involved $130,000 in hush money payments to adult film star Stormy Daniels, an alleged attempt to suppress negative stories ahead of the 2016 election. Trump denies both the affair and the charges. Interestingly, $130,000—the sum of Trump’s hush money payment—would have bought Daniels a Team America First experience, plus President’s Club packages for six friends.

Beyond event invitations, Trump’s fundraising efforts have also included the sale of various merchandise, from Bibles to gold watches and sneakers, to raise money for his 2024 presidential bid.

The extravagant nature of these fundraising appeals has drawn commentary from both Trump critics and the general public. Former NBC executive Mike Sington shared the invitation on social media, using it to poke fun at Trump’s financial situation. “Trump’s desperate, he needs money, fast,” he wrote. “Check out the ‘Ultra MAGA Experience,’ it’s yours for a cool million bucks. But it includes an exorcism, so it may be worth it.”

Similarly, attorney Bradley Moss couldn’t help but question the timing of such an event, wondering aloud, “How broke do you have to be to fundraise 9 days before the election?” With the election fast approaching, Trump’s efforts to replenish his campaign coffers with high-priced experiences show his determination to keep his campaign afloat, even as his legal battles and financial scrutiny continue to loom large.
