That’s right, while Bernie Sanders was live-tweeting the first GOP primary debate, fellow Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton was at a Los Angeles fundraiser with none other than “Kimye.’’

Kim Kardashian, a Clinton supporter, tweeted before the event that she was going for a selfie with the “next President.’’

The former Secretary of State, who has set fundraising records, added to her impressive total Thursday, as guests, including Kris Jenner, Jessica Alba, Tom Hanks, and Usher, paid $2,700 to attend the event at the home of Scooter Braun, aka Justin Bieber’s manager, Variety reported.

Kardashian’s excitement to meet the former first lady and New York senator appeared to get the best of her, as her initial (now deleted) tweet ended with the hashtag, “#HillaryforPresisent.’’
