A Halloween party with a 'Great Gatsby' theme was hosted by Trump, reportedly around the time that funding for SNAP benefits was set to lapse. The party's timing has drawn attention, as it coincided with the expiration of food aid for millions of Americans. The event, held at Mar-a-Lago, has been described as lavish, with some outlets noting the contrast between the party's theme and the financial struggles of those affected by the SNAP benefits cutoff.
