WASHINGTON, DC: President Joe Biden is all set to attend a campaign fundraiser in March where the star guests are former presidents Bill Clinton and Barack Obama.

The three Democratic leaders teased the mega-fundraising event scheduled in New York City next month as they got involved in a fun banter on social media.

More on Joe Biden’s fundraising event

Joe Biden will be holding the reelection campaign on March 28 where he teased that Obama and Clinton will also be present, per New York Post.

On Tuesday, February 6, the Democratic trio hinted at the mega event with Barack Obama posting on X, “Folks – I’ll be in NYC on March 28th to support @JoeBiden. Who’s coming with me? Chip in for your chance to join.”



 

Obama posted the message along with a campaign poster of Biden-Harris. Former President Clinton too chimed in as he joined the conversation saying, “Count me in,” before adding, “Who else is going to be there?”

Biden too replied to the campaign ad, and said, “You guys know you can just call me next time, right?” 



 

The March 28 event is expected to be one of the bigger campaign events for the incumbent candidate as Biden is more used to holding smaller events for fundraisers.

The president is also scheduled to hold three smaller fundraising events in the Big Apple this week and he is scheduled to reach the city at around 12.40 pm.

"Think he’ll remember to show? Maybe hell think he went 30 years ago with deceased politicians," said someone else.

"Where they will completely ignore Biden while basking in the attention for themselves," remarked another user.



 

Someone else remarked, "They’re both younger than Biden. LOL. WTF."



 

"Biden, Obama, and Clinton walked into a bar… no punchline needed…THAT’S the joke," said another netizen.
