President Joe Biden is seemingly planning a major Los Angeles fundraiser that will be heavy on Hollywood A-listers via Western Journal.
It has been noted that former President Barack Obama is being approached to join Biden along with actor/director George Clooney, according to Axios, which cited sources it did not name.
Axios likened the event to a West Coast version of the fundraiser in New York City that featured Biden, Obama and former President Bill Clinton last month and that event brought in $26 million for Biden’s campaign.
It has been noted that with that fundraiser setting a record for a single night, Biden’s campaign hopes for a similar performance at the Los Angeles event, which is being planned for mid-June, according to Axios. The report said other stars, including Julia Roberts, might attend to increase the event’s star power.
The report has stated that joint events bringing Biden and Clinton together in pursuit of campaign cash are also in the works. Overall, Biden reportedly plans to spend as much as $2 billion to convince voters that the 81-year-old incumbent should be elected.
On Thursday, on a trip to New York state for an event at a Micron chip factory being built near Syracuse, Biden was planning to make a pit stop with some East Coast elites, according to the New York Post.
