Did You Get An Invitation For Dinner With Trump?

In Palm Beach, Florida

Would you be tempted to donate?

While cleaning out junk emails off the computer, I came across an email invitation to a special event with Donald Trump. Of course, it was asking for money. If you donated, you received a chance to be entered into a drawing to win a dinner with Trump in Florida.

Maybe you got the same email. It probably went out to millions of voters. It came a while ago, and it may have arrived during the pandemic. I wonder if anyone actually won the dinner.

It says not to share the email, but it has been a long time so it is probably okay. The election will be in less than two weeks.

The email read as follows:

Friend,

I have something important to tell you but you cannot share this with anyone.

I’m hosting dinner in Palm Beach, Florida soon, and I’ve requested that YOU be my special guest.

My team just told me you haven’t entered yet. I’ll admit that I was disappointed to hear that, but, you’re one of my BEST supporters, so I’ve decided to do something I RARELY DO in the hopes that you’ll join me for dinner.

I’ve unlocked an exclusive DOUBLE-ENTRY for YOU and YOU ONLY!

All you have to do is contribute ANY AMOUNT and you’ll automatically be entered TWICE to win a trip to have dinner with me in Palm Beach!

This offer expires at 11:59 PM TONIGHT, so don’t wait until it’s too late.

Please contribute ANY AMOUNT by 11:59 PM TONIGHT and you will be automatically entered TWICE to win a trip to have dinner with me in Palm Beach, Florida.

Join President Trump in Palm Beach, Florida

CONTRIBUTE ANY AMOUNT

This will be the trip of a lifetime, and I can’t think of anyone else I’d rather have there with me.

Remember, in addition to covering the cost of your flight, your 5-star meal and making sure you have a very nice place to stay, you’ll also get to bring a guest of your choice. I’ve even requested that we take a picture together so we can remember the night forever.

I’ve asked to see the next list of entries TOMORROW, and I don’t want to get another list without YOUR NAME on it.

Contribute NOW to be automatically entered TWICE to win a trip to meet your favorite President in Palm Beach.

Thank you,

Donald J. Trump, President of the United States

Even this email drips with the arrogance and narcissism (ie. your favorite President) for which he has become famous. Of course, he didn’t write it although it sounds like him.

Since I am a Democrat who is working on the campaign to elect Joe Biden, it was a little strange to receive this email invitation.

BE SURE TO VOTE!!!
