Pres. Biden, Vice Pres. Harris and their spouses will fete about 150 of the Democratic Party's top donors in Washington as they lay the groundwork for their reelection campaign.
VIDEO: Biden responds to concerns about age amid reelection bidthanked some of his top donors Friday night as he launches a reelection campaign that is expected to need to raise well over $1 billion to secure his second term.
Also in attendance were some of the Democratic Party's most high-profile governors — Gavin Newsom of California, Wes Moore of Maryland and Phil Murphy of New Jersey — and other lawmakers who are close with the president. “Now that he’s thrown his hat back into the ring, the dam has burst and people are super excited and on board,” said Jeffrey Katzenberg, a co-chair of Biden’s campaign. “We’re at the beginning of the beginning. It’s a marathon, not a sprint. And we are in an enviable position in that we’re singularly focused on running and winning in November 2024 and all of our efforts and resources are really focused on that.
“One of the hallmarks of Joe Biden is that he’s always enjoyed grassroots support and it has always been an essential ingredient ," said Katzenberg. "To focus too much attention on the high end and the bundlers would be a mistake.”
