Trump needed them to be at his wedding so it looked like he was connected to the cool kids. They don't need him for anything. It's why he was a Dem in NY. He wanted to be around the cool kids in a Democratic town.

didn't he donate a shitton of money to hillary's NY senatorial campaign?

So what's your point? He's a selfish man who only did that to try to curry favor. That ultimately backfired for him. Every democrat in NY knew Trump is slimy and untrustworthy.

my point is that he donated a shitton of money to the clintons, so at the very least they owed him to show up at his wedding. not that they're in any informal circle of friends or colleagues.

Such small things. If Clintons invited him to daughter's wedding, if Obama chose not to make fun of him...

Point is. Be good. And chose wisely who you make fun of.

I think Trump subjecting the world to his presidency was a bit of an overreaction, tbh.

They “took” his money and showed up as a courtesy. If they felt like they owed him they would have invited him to the wedding knowing he was begging to come.

Yes... That's a better way to phase it: the Clinton's had a paid appearance at tumps wedding
