Trump looks to outdo Biden with $33 million fundraiser hosted by reemerging friendly billionaires

Former President Donald Trump is hoping to outraise President Joe Biden at a fundraiser hosted by billionaires next week, who are returning to support Trump despite fallout from the Jan. 6 riot.

The event will cost $250,000 for admission, but many donors are pledging the full amount of $814,600, according to Trump’s campaign. The fundraiser is expected to haul in $33 million, and the donations will be divided between Trump’s campaign, the Republican National Convention, and a leadership political action committee that helps with his legal fees.
