The Trump train is coming to Newport, RI!
After a hastily organized event, scheduled for September 2nd with Republican nominee Donald Trump was cancelled, the Trump campaign is trying to shake the Newport money tree again. In an email sent Monday morning, organizers are planning an event on October 8th with Governor Mike Pence at a Bellevue Avenue estate. Donation levels go up to $25,000 per person but for only $5,000 you can get a photo with Governor Pence.
The email from host Robert Matheson is as follows:
Good morning…

This event announcement comes with Trump surging in the polls and now less than one percentage point behind Secretary Clinton.
