Thanks for contacting us. We\'ve received your submission. 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 Bidens 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).
