Celebrity gossip sites — and even the Hollywood Reporter — are breathlessly mocking President Donald Trump for failing to attract the glitterati to his kickoff re-election fundraiser in the Hollywood Hills Tuesday night, apparently not realizing that Trump’s failure to attract Obama-level attention from celebrities is a feature, not a bug.
“You’d be surprised at the lack of star power,” a source close to the fundraiser told the Hollywood Reporter.
“This fundraiser could have been held in St. Louis,” said another, apparently a party invitee. “What an insult to Hollywood that it’s being treated as nothing special.”
