Fund-raiser to raise Hamps hell
PRESIDENT Trump will be turning the Hamptons into a veritable hellscape this weekend.
We’re told POTUS is flying in to a West Hampton airport on Friday before driving to a fund-raiser in Southampton, throwing traffic — both on the ground and in the sky — into complete chaos.
The airspace around the area is expected to be locked down from 11 a.m. until 3 p.m. — meaning that those hoping to chopper out from Manhattan to their weekend homes during their summer Friday are out of luck.
The roads are then going to be closed between West Hampton and Southampton, so that the presidential motorcade can whisk Trump to the mansion of a prominent New York billionaire businessman for the lunchtime event.
The Trump fund-raiser comes after a convoy of key Democrats — all rumored to be planning 2020 presidential runs — have already done the rounds in the Hamptons, including New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker, California Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom and Massachusetts Rep.
Seth Moulton. New York Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand is holding a fund-raiser in East Hampton on Saturday, informally titled “Tennis With Kirsten,” where a lucky few will get to play tennis with the senator, followed by a cocktail party and dinner.
A politically connected source said, “In the Hamptons, it takes the Democrats numerous events, and many people, to raise $3 million. All it takes for Trump to raise $3 million out East is 10 wealthy people eating overpriced lobster salad and comparing their tax cuts.”
Meanwhile, in what could be described as an overabundance of great showbiz hair, Donald
Trump Jr.’ s girlfriend Kimberly Guilfoyle will host Michael Bolton’s “An Evening Under the Stars” on Saturday in the Hamptons, featuring a performance by the crooner himself, to benefit those at risk of domestic violence.
