GOP megadonor says Biden's $25 million Radio City fundraiser is actually a 'bad sign'
President Biden headlined a Radio City Music Hall fundraiser Thursday that was set to bring in $25 million for his re-election campaign.
Despite the eye-popping figure, one Republican megadonor claimed to Fox News the event was actually a bad sign for the incumbent.
Point Bridge Capital founder Hal Lambert told "Your World" a factor in the haul was the guest list and the figures who were appearing alongside Biden. For instance, a group photo with Biden, former President Clinton and former President Obama would reportedly set an attendee back $100,000.
Lambert, whose investment firm features the "MAGA" ETF, said Biden will raise "plenty of money," but questioned how much he would haul in if it weren't for his star-studded partners and emcees.

VideoCBS host Stephen Colbert was scheduled to moderate a discussion among the presidents, while "The Office" star Mindy Kaling had been named host of the event.
DreamWorks Pictures co-founder and ex-Disney executive Jeffrey Katzenberg helped organize the event, Variety reported, while also listing Queen Latifah, Lizzo and British songstress Cynthia Erivo among the attendees.
"Having the celebrities there and having the former presidents there says a lot about Biden's effort to be able to raise money on his own," Lambert said.
"I don't think he would come close to that number of $25 million had he not had all the celebrities and not the former presidents there."
