President Biden has been nicknamed “Quid pro Joe.“ Mr. Slater’s nomination is likely to add to this perception.
During the 2020 election cycle, campaign finance records show, Sam Slater gave a total of $139,800 to the Biden campaign and the Biden Victory Fund.
- $2,800 to Biden for President in August 2019.
- $12,000 to the Biden Victory Fund on May 27, 2020.
- Two separate donations, one for $100,000 and another for $25,000, on October 28, 2020, to the Biden Victory Fund.
Slater also contributed $150,000 to Biden’s inaugural committee, PIC 2021, Inc., in December 2020.
