On Wednesday night, President Donald Trump opened the White House to a few celebrities, as Obama did many times during his tenure. The three celebrities Trump hosted for dinner did not appear at any of President Barack Obama’s star-studded bashes: Former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, country-rock musician Kid Rock, and musician turned conservative provocateur Ted Nugent.
CNN’s Jake Tapper tweeted out some images.
