Each campaign is bringing guests designed to highlight their opponent’s vulnerabilities. Clinton’s guest list is dominated by high-profile people who have argued Trump is unfit to serve as president or who might be adversely affected by his hardline stance on immigration.
Trump’s guest list draws attention to Benghazi, sexual assault allegations against former President Bill Clinton and alleged Democratic misdeeds during the campaign, as well as figures likely to appeal to conservatives.
