Donald Trump is now planning to headline a political fundraiser on the day he demanded a break in his hush money trial so that he could attend his youngest son Barron's high school graduation. On Monday, the Minnesota Republican Party announced that the former president will headline its annual Lincoln Reagan Dinner event on 17 May. The fundraiser will be held in Saint Paul, Minnesota, a roughly three hour and 45 minute flight from West Palm Beach, Florida, where Barron's graduation ceremony will take place. The high school event starts from 10am ET. It is not clear what time the Republican fundraiser gets under way. However, Mr Trump's busy schedule that day comes after he falsely claimed the judge in his hush money trial wouldn't give him a day off to attend his son's graduation from Oxbridge Academy. At the start of the trial in April, Mr Trump's legal team asked the judge to allow the criminal defendant the day off.
