So do taxpayers pay for her trip, so Drumpf can make money?

PALM BEACH — There was no visit by President Donald Trump, who remained in Washington, but first lady Melania Trump made a cameo appearance Friday night as the Palm Beach County Republican Party held its annual Lincoln Day fundraising dinner at Mar-a-Lago.

First lady Melania Trump and Gov. Rick Scott at a VIP reception in a picture snapped by an attendee.

Nearly 700 people paid $300 and up to attend the dinner, which Palm Beach County GOP Chairman Michael Barnett expected to raise a little less than $300,000 and cost around $15o,000 to rent Trump’s ballroom.
