BIRMINGHAM, Ala. –  The Alabama Republican Party (ALGOP) on Wednesday announced that Former  President Donald Trump will be the keynote speaker at its 2023 ALGOP Summer Dinner in Montgomery on Aug. 4 as part of the ALGOP’s Summer Meeting.

“The Alabama Republican Party is delighted to have President Trump be a part of our Summer Meeting, and join us as the keynote speaker for our annual Summer Dinner. President Trump is a political figure that (sic) has defined American politics over the last 8 (sic) years, and we are looking forward to hosting him in person August 4th. This is an excellent opportunity for the state of Alabama to see and interact with the GOP front-runner for president,” said ALGOP Chairman John Wahl.

The dinner will take place at the Renaissance Montgomery Hotel at the Convention Center. The evening will kick off with a reception at 6 p.m., followed by dinner at 7.

“The response to President Trump’s visit has been off the charts from people across the state. This is going to be a massive event, and we’re already expecting to sell out of tickets and tables. I encourage anyone interested in attending to buy your tickets early,” Wahl said.

Tickets and sponsorships are on sale now and can be purchased at www.algop.org.

Trump is currently facing unprecedented legal troubles, including 37 federal charges related to his alleged mishandling of classified documents.

“Trump on Tuesday pleaded not guilty to federal charges of mishandling classified documents. In appearances before and after his arrest, he has attempted to cast his indictment as an attempt to damage his chances of returning to the White House,” the AP reported on Wednesday.
