President Biden took a jab at former President Donald Trump on Saturday for hosting a high-dollar fundraiser in Florida, mocking the attendees as "a bunch of hedge fund billionaires."
In a video shared on X, Biden contrasted the event by stating, "This campaign is Scranton versus Palm Beach."
In the 54-second clip, Biden criticized Trump, alleging, "Folks, you know Trump is down in Florida today raising money from a bunch of hedge fund billionaires who want him to cut Social Security and Medicare and their taxes."
The fundraiser, held at hedge funder John Paulson's $110 million Palm Beach estate, drew notable Republicans who paid between $250,000 and $814,000 for entry.
