of course trump can't be a political candidate or do political campaigns, since he's not legally able to be re-elected.

Trump can take part in and help political campaigns like every other citizen, he can even run for elected office after his term as President if he so wishes. The only thing is cannot do is run for President again.
In this case I think it's because it's not just a dinner where you may see the President from far away, it's a smaller setting where you may be able to speak to him.
Legally this is a fundraiser for political campaigning with none of the money going to the President. Again, I believe that this is standard in the US.
