I struggle to think of a good reason why such prominent figures in politics and tech would associate themselves with such an event.

There is no good reason, but there is an obvious bad one: these prominent figures have racist sympathies (if they aren't "outright" racist themselves) and in between a lack of empathy and position of privilege don't care about the negative effects of boosting racist influencers.
