Former President Donald Trump’s recent fundraising event in Nancy Pelosi’s San Francisco neighborhood highlighted his growing appeal in unexpected places.
Hosted by venture investors David Sacks and Chamath Palihapitiya, the event raised $12 million from affluent tech figures, including cryptocurrency investors. Despite its liberal setting, the event drew a diverse crowd with tickets priced from $50,000 to $500,000.
Harmeet Dhillon of the Republican National Committee noted Trump’s relaxed demeanor and humor, while Sacks praised JD Vance for the initiative. Sacks endorsed Trump for his ability to address key national issues, contrasting him favorably with the current administration.
