Thank you. Former President Donald Trump is coming to San Francisco today. He'll attend a fundraiser in his name hosted by Bay Area billionaires. KTVU James Torres reports on what to expect at former President Donald Trump will spend the rest of his week in California first making a stop in this neighborhood within San Francisco's Pacific Heights District. >> This is Donald Trump's first visit to California, and one of his first fundraisers since a jury found him guilty of more than 30 felony fraud charges. Today's event is hosted by venture capitalist David Sachs and Chamath Palihapitiya. >> I've donated to Bobby Kennedy. I've donated to the Democrats massively, and I'll donate to Donald Trump. And if there's an opportunity to talk to President Biden and really understand where he's at, I donate to him as well. >> The two investors held similar fundraisers for other candidates before of all parties. Together, they host a podcast called All In, which is posted on YouTube. There they talk about Trump's fundraiser, saying they've sent an invitation to host and fundraise for President Biden, as well as David Sachs says he thinks today's event will reveal just how much support Trump has in the Bay area. Quite frankly, there's a lot of preference falsification going on in Silicon Valley. >> I know there's a lot of people in Silicon Valley who we know because we know who's coming. >> Yeah, you have the list of people who don't. >> I mean, look, nobody is excited about Biden, okay? Nobody's excited about Biden right now. So the only question is, do they hold their nose and vote for him? Or do they vote for Trump? Or do they vote for Bobby Kennedy? But there's a lot of people who I do think support Trump. >> San Francisco Republicans say while the Bay area typically votes Democrat, having former president Trump fundraise in the Bay shows the momentum the GOP is gaining. >> Yeah, we're seeing, people who are actually willing and open to be associated with the president and to and to, you know, publicly in a public way, give him substantial amounts of money in San Francisco. That's it's a huge thing. Registration was up in every single county, every single assembly district in the state of California. And not just up, but up relative to the Democrats. >> After today, Trump will head to Beverly Hills and Newport Beach for more fundraisers. Experts think he could rack up hundreds of millions of dollars for his presidential campaign. Been reporting in San Francisco. I'm James Torres, KTVU, Fox two news, the group of former President Trump's supporters is gathering right now in Oakland. >> We see a live picture here of the group from California, MAGA. They've asked supporters to bring flags and pro-Trump signs. They say they plan to caravan from
