All three presidents issued warnings about the threat Trump would pose if reelected, with Biden emphasizing that democracy is at stake. The event showcased Democratic unity as Biden faces questions about the strength of his coalition.

**Israel-Gaza Conflict**
The ongoing conflict in Gaza was a prominent issue at the fundraiser, with protesters both inside and outside the venue calling for a ceasefire. Biden addressed the conflict, stating that Arab countries are prepared to fully recognize Israel and calling for a post-Gaza plan.

**Protests and Interruptions**
The event was interrupted multiple times by protesters, with calls for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza. Biden acknowledged the need for humanitarian aid to Palestinians but also emphasized the importance of Israel’s security.

Meanwhile, Trump, who was also in New York attending a wake for a slain NYPD officer, emphasized the need for law and order. His campaign aims to surpass Biden’s fundraising record next month.

**Democratic Unity and Future Plans**
The fundraiser highlighted the unity among Democratic presidents and their commitment to supporting Biden’s campaign. Obama is expected to play a larger role in the campaign as the election draws closer.
