David Sacks, his wife, Jacqueline, and venture capitalist Chamath Palihapitiya are co-hosting the event, according to a copy of the invitation. Tickets to the meal portion of the fundraiser are $300,000 per person and $500,000 per couple. It is $50,000 to attend the reception but not the dinner.

Trump’s visit comes a week after he was convicted of all 34 felony counts against him in a scheme to influence the 2016 presidential election illegally through hush-money payments to an adult film actress. He became the first U.S. president ever convicted of a crime.

Trump is scheduled to be sentenced on July 11, four days before the Republican National Convention is expected to nominate him as their party’s nominee in the 2024 election.
