During a recent New York Post editorial board opinion piece, the Big Apple paper unloaded on President Joe Biden and his fellow Dems for an elitist fundraiser at Radio City Music Hall.
From The New York Post:
Thursday night offered the chance to have glam photographer snap you slapping hands with President Biden, or predecessors Barack Obama and Bill Clinton, for a donation of a mere $100,000 to Biden’s re-election campaign: Pretty posh for the supposed party of the working class.
The Radio City Music Hall event featured a three-prez chat moderated by “The Late Show” host Stephen Colbert, plus performances from Queen Latifah, Lizzo, Lea Michele and more.
With tickets ranging up to $500,000 a pop, the campaign reportedly pulled in $25 million before the doors even opened, a nice addition to the $155 million the Biden-Harris effort has in hand, en route to likely raising a billion or two total (not counting soft, dark and other off-the record money).
That’s a lot of cash to fund ads telling regular Americans that Joe’s fighting for them.
Too bad the facts say otherwise, with Bidenflation (and the killer interest rates needed to fight it) stretching paychecks ever harder.
Heck, voters are so upset on pocketbook issues that Biden and his team have completely quit talking up “Bidenomics.”
Look: We’re all for star-filled luxe Manhattan events (Page Six was there!), but proudly sucking in campaign cash from fat cats in hopes you can buy your way to victory in November sure seems a . . . questionable . . . tactic.
Especially when ex-President Donald Trump marked the day by attending the wake for Police Officer Jonathan Diller, whose murder Biden has yet to mention.
