President Donald Trump's re-election campaign sent out an invitation to an event that almost certainly will be canceled after he announced a coronavirus infection.
The president and first lady Melania Trump will self-quarantine for two weeks, but the campaign sent out an email early Friday soliciting donations in exchange for a chance to meet Trump next week in Houston.
"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to enter to win a trip to meet your favorite President and discuss key issues heading into November," the email read.
