What happened
President Joe Biden and former President Barack Obama criticized Donald Trump and warned about a second Trump term at a fundraiser in Los Angeles on Saturday night. The event — hosted by George Clooney, Julia Roberts and other top celebrities and moderated by Jimmy Kimmel — raised more than $30 million for Biden's campaign, a record for Democrats but shy of the $50.5 million Trump said he raised at a private April fundraiser with major GOP donors.
