JD Vance, Donald Trump with his wife Melania, Don Jr., and Eric Trump also attended the New Year's party. Lara Trump, Eric's wife and former RNC co-chair, captivated the bustling crowd as she performed a cover of Tom Petty's "I Won't Back Down". She publicly released her version of the popular song earlier this year.

Ted Cruz was also a guest at the lavish bash. Trump also took the opportunity to answer a few questions, which saw him once again claim he won his debate with Joe Biden. He said: "He had a chance to do it in the debate and that didn't work out too well for him.".
