Former President Donald Trump’s popularity continues to surge in areas where his support might have once seemed unlikely.
A striking example of this came last week when Trump raised nearly $12 million at a high-profile fundraiser in none other than former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s own neighborhood, according to The Daily Wire.
The exclusive event was hosted by venture capitalist David Sacks and investor Chamath Palihapitiya at their Pacific Heights home. Sacks and Palihapitiya, who co-host the popular All-In podcast, brought together a distinguished crowd of tech moguls, cryptocurrency investors, and venture capitalists.
Attendance at the fundraiser came with a hefty price tag, ranging from $50,000 to $500,000, depending on the perks offered. The impressive turnout underscores Trump’s growing influence in Silicon Valley’s elite circles, a shift that may have surprised some political observers.
