As her story goes, Thompson was filming the film Primary Colors in Hollywood about the Bill Clinton campaign when her phone rang in her movie set trailer.
"Hi, it’s Donald Trump here," the actress recalled hearing to her complete befuddlement.
"Really? Well, can I help you?" she replied.

The actress said she told the hotelier she'd get back to him, but she never did.
So now that he's the most powerful man in the world, does Thompson regret the date that never was?
