(MENAFN- Newsroom Panama) USA President Joe Biden recently raised $26 million at his New York political rally with featured guest speakers Barack Obama and Bill Clinton, which was dubbed the most successful political fundraiser in American history.
Not to be outdone, billionaire donors will be asked to shell out more than $800,000 each for a seat at Donald Trump's dinner table this weekend, from Saturday's Palm Beach event at hedge-fund billionaire John Paulson's $110 million Florida home who has already arranged for $33 million and aiming towards $43 million.
The reported $43million figure was largely achieved by Mr. Trump picking up the phone to make“peer-to-peer asks”.
