Former President Trump Attacks Democrats at Mar-a-Lago Fundraiser
Former President Donald Trump made headlines on Saturday with his fiery remarks at a private luncheon at his Mar-a-Lago club, where he compared the Biden administration to Nazi Germany, calling them a “Gestapo administration.” The event, which served as a fundraiser for the RNC’s annual retreat in Palm Beach, drew hundreds of attendees who donated generously.
During his 90-minute speech, Trump did not hold back, cursing repeatedly and accusing the Biden administration of being behind the criminal indictments he is facing. He also praised his potential vice-presidential contenders, claiming that many were “begging” to serve as his running mate.
The former president also made controversial statements, offering attendees the chance to speak at the podium for $1 million and praising former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich, who was impeached on corruption charges. Trump’s daughter-in-law, Lara Trump, even presented him with a Billboard Music award for a song featuring individuals convicted for their roles in the Capitol attack.
Later in the day, Trump hosted a birthday party for Texas Rep. Ronny Jackson, using the event as a platform to discuss his campaign against Biden. The event was also a fundraising opportunity for the former president.
Overall, Trump’s remarks at the fundraiser stirred controversy and drew attention, showcasing his continued influence within the Republican Party and his ongoing efforts to remain a prominent figure in American politics.
