You Could Have Bought A Ticket To Donald Trumps New Years Eve Party

[still_one]

"Tickets were on sale for a lavish New Year’s Eve party that President-elect Donald Trump and his family are hosting at the Mar-a-Lago Club this weekend, which once again raises those thorny ethics question that have dogged Trump’s presidential transition.


Mar-a-Lago sold the tickets, according to Politico reporter Kenneth Vogel. Since Trump himself owns the Palm Beach, Florida, resort, those sales profit him personally.


Simply buying a ticket could be seen as an effort to curry favor with the president-elect. Those seeking an in-person audience with him also had an incentive to buy since Trump will be there.


So it’s probably no surprise that the tickets sold out. Incoming White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer gave reporters the news on a Friday press call. He also noted that more than 800 guests are expected, including actor Sylvester Stallone and music producer Quincy Jones.


Despite Spicer’s assertion that Jones was expected to be present, the legendary music producer tweeted on Friday night that he would be spending New Year’s Eve in Los Angeles with family and friends. Jones’ daughter Kenya Kinski-Jones called the claim that her father would attend the event “false information” and a “total lie.”
