Here’s The Real Reason Why Melania Trump’s Fundraiser Was Shut Down—She Must Be Freaking Out!

"They were not registered as a professional solicitor or a fund-raising consultant, and they are working to rectify that," Erin Moffet, a spokeswoman for the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, told The New York Times. For those wondering what will happen to the money that has already been raised for Melania's event, Moffet added that it will all be going to another child fostering charity called GenJustice, which has already complied with the state laws.

This is a little different to the narrative the former FLOTUS and her team are pushing, as they claim that the event isn’t canceled due to the aforementioned reasons. Instead, they are claiming that it is simply postponed due to overwhelming interest. "The event organizer is rescheduling to a future date due to the overwhelming support from individuals and charitable organizations," read a statement from Trump's office. Brad Keltner, the head of Whip Fundraising, also said that the decision to reschedule the event had nothing to do with the state's inquiry, telling The New York Times: "Florida state did not shut us down. This was an internal decision made due to overwhelming response that we were not prepared to handle."
