WH Christmas parties might be too dangerous to have, but Biden/Harris seem confident the virus doesn't spread at DNC fundraisers

The Biden White House is reportedly not going to have the traditional Christmas parties this year, saying that because of the pandemic they might be unsafe:

Fortunately, however, the virus doesn’t seem to spread at big political fundraisers:

No big Christmas parties at the White House, but 400 people in a room indoors isn’t a potential super-spreader as long as the goal is fundraising:

“Democrats delivering” what exactly? Open borders, inflation and not shutting down the virus as Biden promised?
