Wow, the place has really fallen apart, hasn’t it? When your A-List stars consist of Rudy Giuliani and Mike Lindell (My pillow guy), it’s safe to say that something is wrong, especially when the big party used to include A-List Hollywood celebrities, media personalities, and the media itself.
Trump celebrated his famous big bad News Years Gala last night, and it was more like a chicken-pox party than a New Year’s Eve celebration. Trump even asked the networks to cover it, including Fox and even… OAN – they wouldn’t do it. Not much audience for guys that are slowly dying on the vine, I guess. If Ron DeSantis had a gala in which his wife dressed in an off the shoulder… well, people would watch with the sound off.
Where were we? Yes, Trump’s chicken po.. I mean New Year’s Eve party. It wasn’t much of a party. When your kids won’t even attend… From The Palm Beach Post:
In past years, Hollywood celebrities have attended Trump’s annual A-list New Year’s Eve party at the Palm Beach club. But this year, the most notable, high-profile figures attending the opulent black tie-and-long gown gala were from the former president’s political orbit, legal adviser Rudy Giuliani and pillow maker Mike Lindell.
All walked the red carpet but did not comment about Trump or their expectations for 2023. Trump’s second-oldest son, Eric, and his wife, Lara, attended as well. However, it did not appear two other adult children who figured prominently in Trump’s political endeavors, Donald Jr. and daughter Ivanka, were at the event.
Okay. I am prepared to give Don Jr. a bit of room on this because he had his kids down with him. So, I’d be happy to hear that he avoided the party to be with his kids. But Ivanka, the chosen one? We’ve all heard the rumors. She’s out of politics, she’s struggling with Jared (big time), and thus she’s sort of out of the inner circle. If I had to bet, she didn’t attend because it’s hard to hide that there are serious troubles in the marriage, and going alone would be disastrous.
As for the A-Listers? Do you want to be associated with his flagrant anti-Semitism or racism? Stupid question. You don’t want to be associated with him at all, never mind the “new stuff” that’s hanging over him.
Soooo, things have run down a bit. And one can bet that Trump noticed. Maybe the prime rib wasn’t USDA “Prime” this year, maybe just “Choice.” Maybe it was snow crab instead of king crab… slumming it.

I still can’t believe Rudy G. got an invite. At least his head wasn’t “leaking” in that video of him!
Sure. Start the new year by flying down to the outhouse in Florida and stand in shit up to your neck, while the resident DJ plays YMCA, and claims he’s king. Can’t understand why anyone would pass it up. My guess is the talking beard was too coked up to be seen by anyone other than his dealer.
“Black tie and long gown” – don’t they know the word “formal”?
I would’ve liked to see someone there in the attire AS DESCRIBED.
You know. Someone wearing an ensemble consisting of a long gown and a black tie.
I guess Caitlyn Jenner didn’t get an invite.
