While Donald Trump talked — and talked — the night away in the first round of the Republican debates, Hillary Clinton kicked back with Kim and Kanye. Which, as New York points out, was a pretty smart move on Clinton's part. "If you're Hillary Clinton, how can you possibly compete with the hysteria surrounding Donald Trump's first presidential debate? Simple: Seek out the one person who can go toe-to-toe with Trump when it comes to self-promotion and generating media attention."
Kim Kardashian announced her Thursday evening company shortly after the GOP debates began with — naturally — a selfie posted on Twitter.
Post debate, Kim posted yet another selfie — this time with Clinton in the picture (and Kanye photobombing). Becca Stanek
