Biden to hold a fundraiser for John Fetterman in Philadelphia next week

resident Joe Biden will hold a fundraiser with Democratic Senate candidate John Fetterman in Philadelphia next week to boost his campaign in a tight and closely watched Senate race that could determine control of the chamber.

The Oct. 20 fundraiser in Philadelphia comes days after Senate fundraising reports are due in a race that has tightened with just four and a half weeks to go.

Biden hasn’t done much public campaigning for midterm candidates but has hosted several fundraisers to bring in money for Democrats who he hopes can mount a challenge from Republicans for control of Congress.

Pennsylvania’s Senate race has already set records for cash spent. Republican candidate Mehmet Oz reported raising $17 million in the last quarter, including a $7 million loan. Fetterman reported bringing in $22 million, though neither campaign has reported how much cash they have left on hand headed into a crucial final stretch when buying up TV time and get-out-the-vote efforts will be critical. Outside groups have also invested heavily, especially in recent weeks.

The joint appearance for Fetterman and Biden comes a week after Biden announced a pardon of all federal “simple possession,” marijuana convictions, something the lieutenant governor had long pressed for. It will also fall five days before the Senate contest’s only debate on Oct.25.

Oz’s campaign responded to news of the fundraiser by calling Biden the “inflator in chief.”

“John Fetterman’s desperate campaign is in a downward spiral and he is doing anything he can to try and undo the momentum Dr. Oz has gained over the past several weeks. ... Tying himself to a failed president who has done more than any leader in history to cause skyrocketing inflation and higher gas prices for Pennsylvania families is also not a winning strategy,” campaign spokesperson Brittany Yanick said.

A contest for who is in worse shape? Odd.

Probably should have skipped inviting Slow Joe to a fund raiser .... 10% has to go to the Big Guy.

He should do a rally. Get some Lee Greenwood playing over Pa, American flags. Hey, Get some make america great again merchant.

Speak for an hour and a half. Introduce some live candidates.

Two buffoons in one picture.

Neither one can carry on a cognitive conversation.

One's demented and/or senile. The other had a stroke, and a VERY large lump / mass on his neck.

And they both have a history of hiding in basements...So they got all that going for them.

I hope that they have an actual conversation without reading any cue cards.

LOL, if Damon ever does anything again, I’m sure some woke poontang is going to be offended and want an apology tour.

Will that violate campaign finance laws?

Making that large a contribution to Dr. Oz' campaign by providing material for a half dozen campaign videos?

It’s a fund raiser, so I assume that it won’t be televised. If it were, I’d love to hear a conversation between Biden and Fetterman.
