Related: About this forumDuring The GOP Debate, Hillary Clinton Was Hanging With The Jenner-Kardashian-West Clan
By Terri Rupar August 7 at 12:40 AM
While the 10 leading Republican candidates gathered on a stage in Cleveland to debate, leading Democratic candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton was in Los Angeles raising money with America's most famous reality TV family.
Variety reported that Clinton was at the home of Scooter Braun, who manages Justin Bieber and Ariana Grande. About 225 people paid $2,700 each to attend, the campaign said. She took the requisite selfies with Kim Kardashian West and husband Kanye West, as well as a photo with Kardashian West's "momager," Kris Jenner.
Also reportedly at the fundraiser: actor Jessica Alba and husband Cash Warren, DreamWorks chief executive Jeffrey Katzenberg, and actors and husband and wife Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson.
Kardashian West has already come out in favor of Clinton: Last month, the author of selfie book "Selfish" said "I hope so" when asked whether she thought Clinton should be the first female president.

(52,166 posts)I would assume that Hanks is no where near that amount. But maybe many of hers are fake likes, I have heard those exist.

(27,819 posts)So who was she wearing? How did her hair look? Who else was there?
Who was Rita Wilson wearing? Did Tom Hanks and Kanye West take any photos together?
I mean, if we're going to discuss politics in Hollywood "insider" fan-zine, gossip-column, OMG! did you see who was there? terms, I want to know every fabulously scandalizing detail!

Hillary looks like she is having a great time. Good for her!

(27,819 posts)I wonder what mascara she uses - like over-the-counter stuff or professionally blended. Maybe there will be a follow-up article and we'll get the scoop on that!!!

I suppose Clinton could hang at my house, just got the floors done. But my 30 or so FB friends, and no twitter account, may not make a huge amount of campaining sense.

(5,402 posts)The more I see how awful she is, how crazy ignorant are her supporters, and how she kowtows to vile groups of self-entitled snooty ignoramuses, the more I doubt, if she wins the primaries, that I will make a promise to hold my nose in the GE.
I resent, at my core, how the DNC is shoving this corporate tool down our throats.

(58 posts)I give her the benefit of the doubt on this issue because I have read that they had enormous debt due to the republican witch hunt that they had to defend themselves against.

So upsetting.

(11,498 posts)Taking a pic with Kim didnt help her. On the other hand she is popular with many americans so who knows?
I see her as someone who got famous for no reason.
