GOP charging guests $20,000 to attend 'Trumpapalooza' convention [View all]

The Republican Party’s unprecedented “midterm convention” will see guests charged tens of thousands of dollars to attend, with state party websites offering “honorary delegate” status for $20,000.

While the two main political parties typically only hold large-scale conventions around presidential elections to certify their candidates and whip up voter enthusiasm, Donald Trump has pushed for one ahead of this year’s elections marking the midway point in his second term, hoping for a similar boost.

The event, which Trump has promised will deliver “great entertainment”, is expected to be held at the 20,000-seat American Airlines Center in Dallas, Texas, on September 9 and 10 and headlined by the president and Vice President JD Vance, but attendees will have to pay a high price to join them.

The Michigan Republican Party is offering those interested in honorary delegate privileges an “exclusive convention experience” for $7,500 or $10,000 per couple, for which they will receive floor seats, a hotel room, an invite to a private breakfast and an unspecified “convention gift”.

In other words, the average MAGA can stay the fuck away.
