President Barack Obama concluded a visit to Saskatoon with appearances on two fundraisers and an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live.
Tuesday morning’s fundraiser was a round table discussion at television producer Ryan Murphy’s home in Beverly Hills. Tickets to the fundraiser were sold for $ 33,400, with the proceeds going to the Senate Democratic Campaign Committee. Murphy, writer, director and producer, is best known for “Glee”, “American Horror Story” and “Nip / Tuck”.

On Monday, Obama entertained Jimmy Kimmel’s audience with some of the nasty tweets sent to him, starting with one sent by Donald Trump in August when he said, “President Obama will go down as perhaps the worst president in United States history . “
Obama’s response: “Really? Well @realDonaldTrump, at least I’ll go down as president.”
The president appeared on ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live during his three-day visit to Nevada and California, fighting and raising funds for presidential candidate Hillary Clinton and other Democratic candidates. The segment contained a mixture of humor and serious talk about the current election.
Kimmel regularly lets celebrities read some of the nasty tweets that are sent to them. Another person asked, “Barack Obama, bro do you even raise?”
“Well, I’ve lifted the Cuban cigar ban. It’s worth something,” Obama replied.
Obama spoke at a $ 100,000 per person evening fundraiser in Beverly Hills on Monday on behalf of Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign at the home of DreamWorks Animation CEO Jeffrey Katzenberg and his wife Marilyn, according to an invitation from City News Service.
The visit was Obama’s 26th visit to the Saskatoon and Orange counties as president and the fundraiser will be 42nd and 43rd in the area. He ran fundraising campaigns on 22 of his past visits.
The visit was Obama’s first since April 8, when he spoke at two fundraisers during a roughly 17-hour visit.
The Katzenberg event will be the fourth Clinton campaign fundraiser in the Saskatoon area in seven weeks, priced at $ 100,000.
